EXPLANATION =>
….Ever since crossing the Border into ND, the ZMM Route on Rt 13 has been to the West … “Arrow Straight” … for 40 miles. But slightly South of Wyndmere, ND, Rt 13 suddenly, turns to go the SW SW, only to straighten out to go … Again, Go West.
… “Arrow Straight” … For another 26 miles, and then suddenly Rt 13, AGAIN turns to go SW.. … ATTENTION: HERE the ZMM Route Traveler … should SLOW-DOWN => This is the location, where Robert Pirsig’s Most Famous Photo scene appears! Is HERE, South of Milnor ND. Click Here.

MORE EXPLANATION =>
….Folks at the Dakota Valley Electric Cooperative, told us that their REA Co-op built this picnic area right beside their own Coop Buildings in ~1966, not long prior to the ZMM Narrator's 1968 trip. Since the Historical Marker Park for Camp Buell, happens to be adjacent, they also take care of the mowing and maintenance of the Park as well as this Photo /\ Above /\ Picnic Canopy Area.

NOTE =>
…Readers should be aware, that since Robert Pirsig took his 1968 Photos, New Buildings have been added, in distance beyond highway. These make verification of the actual photo location, more difficult.
...Since this Metal Canopy had been there since ~1966, it probably became rusty and beyond repair, so it got removed. Even the concrete base was gone.
