INSTRUCTIONS & COMMENTARY
Turn left out of 365 Trl on to Hwy 27 southward.
The Sandoz Historical marker is a few hundred yards on the left.
Pleasant Point Church, cemetery, community centre & school on LHS
The entrance is just under seven miles from the Historical Marker - turn left on
to 277 Trl.
Here is where you will find the
old sod house where Mari lived briefly, when she was teaching in early 1923.
Many sources say she was at the Hunzicker School, but a document in the archive at Chadron
lists it as the Oliver Hamilton School – and the ranch on which the sod-house stands is
owned by the Hamiltons.
The Hamiltons were friendly and we were welcomed to look around, but they say they may be
demolishing the old place shortly. It isn’t safe.
Turn left out of 277 Trl and you're on your way back to Gordon. We hope that you had an
interesting and enjoyable trip.
Back to the starting point. Congratulations - you made it! As a reward, you can see some extra photos
