Located in White Cloud, the 4-State Lookout is a raised wooden platform that offers visitors stunning 360-degree views of the surrounding countryside. (While we cannot confirm nor deny whether or not you can really see four states—Kansas, Iowa, Missouri, and Nebraska—we can definitely say that the pristine colors and views are worth the trip!) Check out this video to see the views for yourself:
