We covered miles and miles of relatively flat land in North Dakota and spotted resting migrating swans on the numerous roadside lakes along the two-lane ND 5.
In the Turtle Mountains’ (yes there is even rumored to be a ski resort up these ways), we were delighted to find Lake Metigoshe State Park about 14 miles northeast of Bottineau, ND, within a stone’s throw the U.S./Canadian border.
Entrance fee—$7/day per vehicle; dry camping—$17/night.
