I was sent the following information. I have no ties with the company and am not receiving any compensation. I post this simply as part of the stated purpose of the blog: information sharing. There is no hidden agenda. Periodically I get queries from truckers asking about possible work; I assume this could be such a lead.
I know nothing more about the company than what is being posted, and what I have learned by visiting the website.

One of the reasons this note caught my eye(s) was the mention of Glendive, MT. Glendive is another city for which I have a warm spot. Sometimes when I go back to Williston, I fly into Billings, rent from Enterprise, and then drive to Williston. It's a beautiful drive. When one gets to Glendive, one has lunch at McDonald's (with wi-fi) and then leaves the interstate to head northeast to Williston. It's a great drive, and great scenery. It's about a hundred miles from Glendive to Williston (corrected from earlier version).
According to the website, it looks like there may be two Fores transloading facilities in North Dakota, Lansford and Mohall. This is the second time in about as many weeks that I have seen "Lansford" mentioned in regard to the Bakken. Lansford and Mohall are northwest of Minot.
