  • Corridor Management Plan Table of Contents
    FORWARD The late Charles Kuralt said . "Nebraska’s Highway 2 is one of America’s 10 most beautiful highways. This road will take you to one of the last unexplored frontiers where vast treasures can be discovered." Charles Kuralt of CBS television program “On the Road”: “From the first time I ever drove along it, I’ve been in love with Highway 2. It’s not so much that there’s a special something to see along Nebraska’s Highway 2. There’s a special nothing to see. From Grand Island to Alliance, Highway 2 takes you through the Nebraska Sandhills, the largest area of sand dunes in the western hemisphere. Writers inevitably use a metaphor of the sea to describe the hundreds of thousands of acres of grass – and hundreds of thousands of acres of sky. Like the sea the emptiness of the Sandhills gives the travelers a strange sense of comfort, there’s a feeling that as long as these two things are in order, the earth and the sky, all the rest can be forgotten until tomorrow. Highway 2 is not just another highway that goes somewhere, Highway 2 is somewhere.” Sandhills Journey Scenic Byway Corridor Management Plan Table of Contents Forward – Charles Kuralt’s Impression Table of Contents 1 .

    Hunt ID: 6020-NE-G-C-2800-Platte-MDeerWDeer-TH2URAR-RE1-R2RYTE-E2RICH Picture yourself in the wide-open spaces of the Nebraska Sandhills. Sand dunes frozen in time by a waving carpet of tall grasses and wildflowers, dotted with leadplant, yucca and wild rose. Freshly harvested corn and alfalfa fields lay in the valley. The air is crisp and clean. Autumn's golden colors fill the vista as you look across the valley at daybreak. You are ready to hunt the ancient prairie chicken or the sharp-tailed grouse; the majestic mule deer or elusive whitetail deer; or the wild dog of America, the coyote. You stay as a guest in our home! Get a great night's sleep in your comfortable, private room with only the lullaby of the coyotes' howl. Enjoy a hot, hearty breakfast while visiting with your outfitter and guide discussing the lay of the land and where they find the biggest bucks, but better yet where they have seen the biggest bucks in the last couple of weeks working the land. He has lived all of his life right here and hunting is his passion. He will take you where the game is. With nearly 12,000 acres of hunting grounds to cover, your guide will thrill you all day with his expert driving skills in the rough and wild country you will encounter. After a morning of outdoor adventure, come home to a hot lunch and a little R&R, needed from your early morning beginning of the day. Maybe take a break and hunt for flint arrow and spear heads.
