North Dakota

North Dakota is best known within the United States for Theodore Roosevelt National Park’s eroded Badlands. Across the state, prairie, rolling plains and broad agricultural country are cut by the Missouri River, whose impoundment forms Lake Sakakawea, one of the nation’s largest reservoirs. Bismarck, the state capital, stands on the river’s east bank, while Knife River Indian Villages National Historic Site preserves an important landscape of Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara history. Farther west, the Little Missouri River shapes the badlands associated with Theodore Roosevelt’s ranching years. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across North Dakota.
