Well, It looks like you have only four adventures waiting for you in North Dakota.

The Devils lake Monster



Only in the northeast

The local American Indians told the settlers stories of a great snake that lived beneath that lake, a serpent that instilled fear in those who saw it. According to a 1915 article in the Grand Forks Daily Herald, two well-known businessmen, a police captain, and the pastor of the local Methodist Episcopal Church, saw the Devils Lake Monster on different days, and at different points on the lake. Each gave a similar description. The creature was about two feet round, and about sixty feet long.

The Miniwashitu


In the late 1800s, a man wandering near the river saw an enormous creature rise from the water. Red hair, thick “like a buffalo” covered the beast. The monster had only one eye, and a single horn thrust from its forehead. Its backbone protruded, nocked like “an enormous saw.” Terrified, the man made it home before he passed out, and later died.

Bigfoot



I mean of course! This guy is everywhere.

These weren’t the first sightings of the creature in North Dakota. A man hunting said a “great ape” stalked him outside his mobile home in Minot, North Dakota. A newspaper clipping from 1908 also chronicles an encounter with Bigfoot.

Thunderbird


American Indian stories of these flying terrors across North America are similar. Thunderbirds can create storms, shoot lightning bolts, and have been known to eat pets – and children.

Keep an eye on that cat!
And be ready for adventure.
