Many of our colorways were inspired by the sites and sounds around us here in Nebraska. Sandhills sunset reminds us of the annual migtration of the Sandhill cranes during a chilly March sunset in Central Nebraska. Niobrara Rainbow is named for the river in Northern Nebraska which sports over 200 waterfalls along its winding course. Maple Creek is just across the road from us. Home to raccoons, badgers, fox and many birds including pelicans, herons, hawks and eagles. The Calamus River is home to many beautiful sites only accessible by canoe or raft.
