Cup and Saucer Hills

The Cup and Saucer Hills are a modest mountain range located in western Kansas. Formed by ancient volcanic activity, the range features gently sloping hills and mesas with exposed rock outcroppings. Elevations range from around 2,500 to 3,200 feet, providing a welcome respite from the surrounding plains. The landscape is dominated by short-grass prairie, interspersed with stands of juniper, oak, and hackberry trees. Wildlife such as pronghorn, mule deer, and prairie dogs are commonly spotted in the area.
