A long time ago I promised these pictures and <br/>
finally got around to get prints made from the <br/>
slides. The obelisk is 2 miles N of Pembina, ND<br/>
via an old road that parallels I29.  The road <br/>
dead ends at the border near the monument. Clark<br/>
Hall and I were there Aug 25, 1988 to visit the <br/>
low point of ND which is where the Red R. flows <br/>
into Canada. <br/>
The monument is 1/8 mi. E of the Interstate and <br/>
about 1/4 mi. W of the river.  There was the usual <br/>
no-mans land swath along the border but near the <br/>
river it was not cleared.  In the picture of us <br/>
at the water&#39;s edge, if you look out in the river <br/>
the tripoint is in the middle even with where we <br/>
are standing.  This is Manitoba-MN-ND or if you <br/>
prefer Canada-MN-ND. We didn&#39;t start the tri-points <br/>
project until 1990, so at that time we weren&#39;t <br/>
thinking about that.<br/>
