I had intended to get to Valentine (the first stop on this trip) via Broken Bow and Highway 83. Because of the flooding, collapsed bridges, and roads being out, I took a somewhat roundabout way. Compliments of the Nebraska Highway Conditions site, I went further west and took Highway 97 north from North Platte. Nary a problem was encountered. Every river and lake along the way was very full, but no water on the road.
A few photos from todays trip

I mostly had the road to myself

The Dismal River Outfitters have quite a spread

The Loup River was full, but not overflowing

Most ranches have signs. Some ranchers seem to have a sense of humor

No post depicting the Sandhills would be complete without a picture of cattle

Or horses
