The Nebraska National Forest | The Sandhills Journey Scenic Byway
Journey down the Nebraska Sandhills via the beautiful Highway 2.
Explaining the NEBRASKA Sandhills! Road trip on Highway 2
My husband and I are on a 12 day road trip through the United States, and in this video we finally got to see the Nebraska Sandhills! They are a national natural landmark and they're beautiful! In the video I'll tell you all about this fascinating landscape, and I'll explain the effect the Rocky Mountains have on Nebraska's vegetation. We spent the night at Arrow Hotel in Broken Bow. If you're wondering why we suddenly changed our clothes, it's because some shots of this video are from the day after ;) We continued on Highway 2 after spending the night in Broken Bow and the Sandhill shots are taken between Broken Bow and Alliance.

Heading North on US 83 through Nebraska. A very attractive part of the country, not as flat or as dull as I expected, would recommend it as a drive.

Overlook: A Journey Through Nebraska's Unsung Beauty
“Overlook” is a tribute to Western Nebraska. Nebraska is known for it’s cows, crops and college football — my intent is to showcase the unique landscapes and dramatic skies that the panhandle has to offer.
I began production in 2016, but my urge to explore Nebraska’s panhandle came after a road trip in 2014. I shot hundreds of timelapse clips since my initial trip, and have narrowed it down to my favorite 25 scenes for this film.
Next time you are planning a trip, or driving down interstate 80, consider a short detour to these incredible locations.
