Southeastern North Dakota, Like Kansas, "Is Flatter Than a Pancake. "I suddenly notice the land here has flattened into a Euclidean plane. Not a hill, not a bump anywhere. This means we have entered the Red River Valley. We will soon be into the Dakotas." (Start Chapter 3) "By the time we are out of the Red River Valley the storm clouds are everywhere and almost upon us. .. John and I have discussed the situation in Breckenridge and decided to keep going until we have to stop." ~22 Mi West-Breckenridge, MN. Panorama with Lone Windmill. Here the ZMM traveler is leaving the Red River Valley Area of Eastern North Dakota. This is an 8 picture panorama. Click photo for the largest view. You must use the right (and bottom) "arrow-keys" to view the whole picture. Highway going off into the distance at the beginning of the panorama, is exactly East. (Opposite to ZMM Route direction of travel as indicated by my car.) As you "scroll" through this panorama your view will be all the way around the horizon, full circle!! The highway going into the distance (at approximate panorama center) is West, and the direction of the ZMM Route. North is in direction perpendicular to the car side of the highway.
