View of Lake and Campground Where Pirsig, Chris, John and Sylvia Camped the Second Night of Their Trip.
"We drive down a county road from Lemmon, exhausted, for what seems a long, long time, but can’t be too long because the sun is still above the horizon. The campsite is deserted. Good. But there is less than a half-hour of sun and no energy left. This is the hardest now. .. I try to get unpacked as fast as possible but am so stupid with exhaustion I just set everything by the camp road without seeing what a bad spot it is. Then I see it is too windy. This is a High Plains wind. It is semidesert here, everything burned up and dry except for a lake, a large reservoir of some sort below us. The wind blows from the horizon across the lake and hits us with sharp gusts. It is already chilly. There are some scrubby pines back from the road about twenty yards … "

Campground Road, Liewellyn Jones Recreation Area, SD.
Directions to get this photo location: => Go South from Lemmon, ND, cross into S. Dakota on Rt 73 going some 20 miles, till you go down a grade and over a causeway with a lake on both sides. As you come up from the lake level to the top of the grade, turn right (West) into the park. Almost immediately you will see a right turn (North) into a campground. Within 300 feet you will be driving along the edge of drop-off to lake. (If you get to the town of Shadehill, SD or a sign for Shadehill Reservoir, you have gone too far South. (Thanks to Lee Glover for this correction.)

One Of Robert Pirsig’s 12 1968 Color Pictures, Shows This Same Reservoir In The Distance. However, in contrast to my picture /\ above /\, Dr. Pirsig’s picture shows the reservoir and campground as relatively new. Please return here to these ZMMquality Photos after viewing one Pirsig photo.
