Pawnee Rock traditionally provided a great view of the surrounding area along the Santa Fe Trail. The rock was a well known landmark along the trail. However over the years the upper layers of the rock were removed and the rock used in the building of homes. Today there is a platform on top of the rock to give an idea of the original height of the rock as the height was lowered at least twelve feet.
