Our trip up north this past June took Jared and I to visit family in North Dakota, where we also slipped in a visit to the local state park, Fort Stevenson. Located on the shore of Lake Sakakawea, Fort Stevenson is a gateway onto the lake but also holds its own as a historical park. The fort was used in the early days of trapping and exploring the wild west, and was a stop along the way to gold mines in Montana and Idaho, but today only a replica of the main building remains. It was still neat to learn about the history of the area and how things used to be for those who settled nearby. Its always fun to go to parks like this, to see how things had been.
Leave me a comment below and tell me if you think historical parks like this are neat, or are they boring?
