0.0 US 50/400 and Highway 25 - go south and southwest on Highway 25.

22.8 Hamilton/Kearny County line at CR B - turn left (south)
25.8 Quad county corner for Hamilton/Kearny/Stanton/Grant - go straight
ahead (south) if you have a high-clearance vehicle, or park and walk.

A gentleman came out on his tractor to see what I was doing. He didn't know that the area was the Grant County high point and was amazed that I would come all the way from California just to be there for a few minutes. I often wonder the same thing.
