Step into the world of the Sandhill Crane. This river-based photography blind is a one-of-a-kind experience that will often put you only feet from the cranes.
If you’ve ever wondered what it was like to truly spend a night among the cranes, there is nothing like this photography blind, positioned on a sandbar in the middle of the Platte!
Cranes can often be seen roosting only feet from the blind. With multiple shooting portholes available, you can view and photograph to the north, east, and south and the blind also provides portholes that are at ground level for those incredible morning river shots of cranes up close.
This blind includes both evening and morning viewing. The floor is padded with a cot and heater included.
**Access does require wading through the river and while most of it is very shallow, you may find deeper areas of several feet. Waders are provided if you don’t bring your own. For your own comfort be sure to dress warmly and bring proper cold weather camping gear.
