Lake Sakakawea dominates this section of the western North Dakota plains, where the Missouri River has been transformed into a wide reservoir system. The landscape is defined by the high bluffs and recessed bays of the Missouri, connected by the Four Bears Memorial Bridge which spans the narrowest point of the water between Four Bears Village and the town of Sanish. The topography transitions from the rugged breaks of Four Bears Bay to the plateau where New Town is situated.
