Even though we would have a longer than usual day of driving, we decided to use our Passport of America book to find another national site. We left Williston, ND and drove toward Knife River Indian Village National Historical site in Stanton, North Dakota, continuing on the path Lewis and Clark took. Knife River’s visitor’s center was interesting and educational exploration of the Northern Plains Indians on the Upper Missouri. Among other things, I learned they made a bull boat from a buffalo to cross the large rivers.
We arrived at Mina Lake Recreational Park without a reservation. This wasn’t a good plan on our part since it was the Fourth of July holiday weekend. Luckily there were a couple open sites because it had rained a lot on the Fourth and 5th.
Since we arrived around 6 pm, we decided not to get the kayaks out.
