Junction
Altitude: 1473 feet
|
Junction Kansas Highway #232 with Kansas Highway #18 just southeast of Lucas, Kansas. This is where Post Rock Scenic Byway starts. Along the Post Rock Scenic Byway journey, travelers witness the vast prairie of grasses where the first buffalo roamed through the Smoky Hills and the Saline River valley and today, deer and cattle graze in the pasturelands. Petroglyphs dotted throughout the rugged Dakota sandstone bluffs around the clear blue Wilson Lake give evidence of native Indian hunting grounds.
