Lake Sakakawea and the wide channel of the Missouri River dominate this modern landscape where the borders of McKenzie and Mountrail counties meet. The survey details the established community of New Town, showing its street grid and proximity to Sanish Bay, alongside the nearby settlement of Sanish. West across the water, Four Bears Village serves as a primary hub on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation, connected to the eastern shore by the Four Bears Memorial Bridge. This infrastructure allows Nd-23 to bridge the reservoir, a modern development that reshaped the geography of these tribal lands and river valleys. Genealogists may find interest in the Riverview Cem overlooking the water, while the inclusion of local thoroughfares like Chief Four Bears Ave and Sakakawea St highlights the cultural heritage preserved in the local nomenclature.
