North Dakota Time Zones Jigsaw Plot

The History Channel reports that US and Canada railways are beginning four continent time zones around midday that exact date to end familiarity with millennia of time. There' often confusions about time zone in North Dakota - that actually has two. One area of greatest bewilderment concerns Theodore Roosevelt National Park.

There are two sections in the park - a southern section (with access to Medora) and a northern section (with access to Watford City). While the southern part of the park is in the highland time zones, the northern part (at least in the visitors' centre) is in the middle time zones.

So, how does the time zoning work in North Dakota? North Dakota's east and center areas are in the center time zones - like Minneapolis, Chicago, Dallas, etc. Coming from the South Dakota frontier, the frontier follows Highway 65/31 and the circular routes of the Sioux, Morton and Oliver counties to the Missouri River at Hazen.

Since then, the area on the west/south side of the Missouri River/Lake Sakakawea is a Bergzeitzone, while the area east/north of the Missouri River lies in the middle time area. On the southwest frontier of the Fort Berthold Reserve, the frontier runs westwards through the districts of Dunn and McKenzie (and the northern division of TRNP) to the frontier with Montana, where it follows the frontier with Canada.

Be in the right place - and you could be in North Dakota in two time zone at the same time!
