The Long Lost Pirsig 1968 Picnic Canopy Has Been Found! “North Dakotans Are Cool and Kind!”
On my second trip along the ZMM Route, I had the sense of great satisfaction and privileged as I took this photo! This was because, for a long time the geographical location of Pirsig's picnic area has been unknown, despite widespread efforts to the contrary. Finally, Gary Wegner taking leadership, wrote to the County Engineers in the North Dakota Counties of Richland and Sargent. Tim Schulte, Richland County Engineer, replied: “I did some checking with various folks in Richland County and nobody could remember a rest area along State Highway 13 in Richland County. Check Wyndmere, SD (Continued next photo.).
Along Highway 13 at Milnor, ND.
