THE AREA:
Whitman and Grant County are located in the Sandhills Region of Nebraska that features 400 ft high ridges of rolling hills with valleys holding numerous lakes and
hay producing meadows. The abundant lakes are a result of the amazing underground water reservoir known as the Ogallala Aquifer. Whitman is the heart of the deepest saturated depth of the aquifer. The area has ample recreational opportunites for golf, fishing, hiking, ATV riding, horseback trail rides, and hunting of big game, upland birds, and waterfowl. Whitman is 70 miles north of Ogallala, Interstate 80 and Nebraska's largest lake, Lake McConaughy. Ogallala is 200 miles east of Denver, 170 miles from Cheyenne and 330 miles west of Omaha. Hyannis is a nearby (13 miles) friendly community that provides most services including grocery store, bank, convenience store, and fully accredited K-12 schools. The Sandhills Area Chamber of Commerce is headquartered in Hyannis and provides information on businesses, services, and events for Hyannis and Whitman as well as for the numerous nearby small towns.
