Douglas Attractions
The small town of Douglas should be on the itinerary of any tourist who takes joy in collecting photos of unusual roadside attractions such as the world's "largest pecan" or the "dog on a tucker box". Douglas is known for its huge statue of a jackalope - a jackrabbit with antlers.
Fort Fetterman State Historic Site
All that remains of Fort Fetterman is a couple of restored buildings, however, that should not deter the visitor from stopping in at exit 25 off Interstate 25. Fort Fetterman State Historic Site contains a plethora of information on the history of the site and how it played an important role in the development of the West. Picnic tables and large areas of grass are available, and camping is permitted.
