From K-7 in Cherokee, 5 miles west on U.S. 400, 2 miles north on 100, 2 miles east on 520, then 2 miles south on 120 and you’re back to U.S. 400. You leave the blacktop at your first turn (north on 100) to drive through part of the Mined Land Wildlife Area—land once devastated in the aftermath of strip mining is now lush with woodlands, grasslands, and abundant water. One mile east on 520 you’ll cross Limestone Creek on the Hudgeon Bridge (NRHP), a picturesque 1923 bridge with lovely railings and turned balusters. (8 Wonders of Kansas - Geography finalist)
