Turtle River State Park in North Dakota

This was our last night before the FMCA Rally in Minot. We then had an easy drive along highway 2 of about 300 KM to Minot. What was of interest about this park was that it was originally designed and constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps starting in 1934. It was part of the “New Deal” make work program created by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. 

It was mid week and there were only about six other campers in the two large camping areas. There were excellent trails and on Wednesday morning we bicycled along a muddy trail beside the Turtle River. It was pleasantly quiet and wilderness like.
