This trail starts at a spur off Soldier Creek Road in Fort Robinson. When you drive up to the parking loop and reach the top, there is a chance the hillside will be covered with longhorn steers. At that point, you have to ask yourself, "Do I feel lucky?" Well, not really, punk. And you save that trail for another day. The trail proper leads back into the hills for a lovely day hike. At the start you can climb the nearest hill and see over the landscape back toward the fort and up toward the reservoir. If you are shooting infrared, you can see the far hills even more clearly. This view wouldn't work in this lighting if not for the foreground tree, which provides some much needed contrast.
