Snowbirds On The Road -- The Bakken, North Dakota, USA

Minnesota/South Dakota migratory birds reporting from New Mexico; followed US Highway 83 --

Their road report: 
From Minnesota and then to central South Dakota;  Hit US-83 headed south through Nebraska, Kansas.

Could not believe the number of wide load trucks heading north.  Most all had pilot cars and had big stuff.

One would have to assume it was headed to the Williston area. Anyway, arrived at our winter home in New Mexico, much warmer than northern Minnesota.
That's interesting about the "pilot cars."

We don't see many "pilot cars" in the Bakken, so what you saw there had to be really big.

Thank you for the report.

On the Road Again, Willie and Friends
If folks want a more traditional, studio version, let me know.

  1. Interesting article; could possibly be Chesapeake related equipment headed to the Bakken from distant gas plays.

    1. Interesting. I was thinking same thing -- related to natural gas, not necessarily Chesapeake.

      But even more likely: the huge new rigs coming out of H&P.
