Video Of 32nd Avenue, West Of Williston; Screen Shot Of West Williston -- August 22, 2014

Turn the volume OFF on this one; there is no audio accompanying this video, unless you miss the sound of North Dakota wind.

This is driving north on the new 32nd Avenue west of Williston. It was just completed this summer. It connects with US Highway 2 & 85 west of Williston, at the new retail area, and then, with the first of four roundabouts, it heads north to one of the older/newest and biggest subdivisions in Williston, Harvest Hills.

Driving north on 32nd Street west of Williston, connecting northwest residential with southwest retail.


I do not know exactly where the new high school will be built but I was told yesterday it will be "a bit north and a bit west" of the golf course northwest of Williston. The map below shows the likely location based on that description.

Also, note that a brand new subdivision, "The Ridge" is going up north of Harvest Hills. The "old location" refers to the present location of the co-located Williston Middle School and Williston High School. Once the new high school is open, fifth and sixth graders will move to the "old" high school. I understand that yet another elementary school is planned for Williston.

Current location of Williston Middle School, High School; New Williston High School to be built somewhere north and west of the golf course.

From The Coyote blog, this sign in Minnesota: "Due to increases in the Minnesota minimum wage, daily camping rates will increase by $2 in 2015 and an additional $1 in 2016."

    1. If it's been more than a year since your last visit, you're going to be in for quite a surprise. The biggest surprise for me: all the open rangeland that has not been drilled. There is an incredible amount of work to be done. There's enough work for three generations of roughnecks.
