Driving to Fort Robinson from Chadron was beautiful. The highway is the Bridge to the Buttes scenic highway. It looks so different with the buttes just coming out of the ground. At the Fort, there are a number of ways to tour the fort. There are horses to ride, even long trips into the buttes. I'm not a horse woman, although it sounds like fun. There are stage coach rides or hayrack rides. We went on the jeep ride up to the top of a butte. The jeep seats 6 adults in the open jeep around the sides and back.
We rode up a very rough trail to the top of the butte. He showed us where the Cheyenne Indians hid from the troops. We all bounced around in the jeep as we hit various bumps in the road.
I'll post some of the other pictures after this post as we rode along.
