4 BEARS CASINO, NORTH DAKOTA

 

The 4 Bears Reservation Casino was one of my favorite stops on a six week trip north.  The people were friendly and the grounds and park were scenic and worth exploring

An RV Park is located behind the casino

 The casino is located on the shore of Lake Sakakawea, formed by a dam on the Missouri River

The Four Bears Bridge spans the River at the site of the Casino.

 



 

 

A high peak on the eastern side of the bridge offers a panoramic view of the surroundings.

 

On the western side of the bridge sits a park that outlines the history of the Indians of the Three Affiliated Tribes.  I found this history of the people and the area of great interest and I tried to summarize it from the markers found in this park.  For those who are interested you can check it out through this LINK.  The park is also the starting point of a paved bicycle trail that crosses the bridge and terminates in New Town about 5 miles away.

 

Rock hunting at Four Bears was pretty exciting.  Most of the finds were at a gravel pit behind the casino.  Petrified wood was found in multiple locations in the state and was well represented in the finds at Four Bears.
