There’s a tiny concrete monument at Panorama Point, elevation 5,424 feet, the highest spot in Nebraska. It’s on a knoll, like the surrounding knolls only a bit higher.
When Bob Bolton of Salmon Creek got out of his vehicle and stood at Panorama Point in early May, he completed a journey started 47 years earlier: To reach the high point of each of the 48 states.
Check out the The Highpointers Club or the county highpointer site. You may also want to see Bolton’s list of lists.
Bolton, 65, reached the highest elevation of his final 20 states in a two-week blitz during late April and early May, completing what began on California’s 14,495-foot Mount Whitney in the fall of 1965.
