The Writing Rock State Historic Site is way, way up in the remote Northwest corner of North Dakota. The Montana state line is just a few miles to the West; the Canadian border is just a few miles to the North.
In short: WRITING ROCK IS WAY OUT THERE!
If you're an intrepid traveler, if you like to explore obscure locations and go where few have gone before, you owe it to yourself to find this fascinating site. Just being in the area is a remarkable experience.
The Writing Rock is covered with strange, ancient Native American petroglyphs. Adjacent is a picnic area, a playground and basic bathrooms. You'll travel a dirt road just to reach it. For all kinds of reasons, THIS PLACE IS WAY COOL! read more
