It was a very wet 285 miles to Wolf Point, MT but we enjoyed going through the SD oil fields. It is difficult to find decent CGs along route 2, tonight's has 6 or 8 long term trailers surrounding 3 1/2 pull troughs. We do have 30a and FHU (full hook ups....electricity, water and sewer). The area is in an Indian reservation and the owner is one.
It was a wet ride with lots of fog in the morning. We got a kick out of the windmills, we could see the blades only at the bottom, we knew there were two more blades up in the haze.
Unfortunately the rain and an inexperienced photographer curtailed our SD oil field pics.
We saw lots of the things above but don't know what they are. We were impressed with the activity for miles and miles along route 2. Construction of all kinds all over the place, we wondered how busy it is if we got off route 2. Some housing consisted of what looked like 2 story shipping containers, single wide trailers, RV scattered all over and in clusters, hundreds of gray single story units with huge parking lots beside them, and new no name multiple story motels. There are thousands of trucks of all shapes and sizes running up and down the road and sitting everywhere. Two new railroad tracks are under construction and we saw long trains of oil cars. Oh......LOTS of oil wells too! There are hundreds of support and logistical support companies and building too.
Our 3 traveling companions have left us. We wanted to see the SD oil fields and they wanted to avoid them and travel further south so we split up this morning.
