**Caution:** A dangerous situation has developed on the upper Missouri River east of the U.S. Highway 85 bridge south of Williston, North Dakota. This area is normally the headwaters of Lake Sakakawea, but due to the lake's current low level, the river here is now a shallow braided channel surrounded by soft deep silt. This area of the river can change rapidly and water levels fluctuate depending on the direction and velocity of winds. What may look passable in the morning may be high and dry by the afternoon. Canoeists or boaters who get stuck have no way of freeing themselves because they can sink waist-deep or more into the mud if they leave the boat or canoe. Local law enforcement agencies are not equipped to help with rescues.

A photographic journey up the Missouri River in North Dakota - Garrison Dam Area
Featured in this low-oblique photograph is light blue, partially ice-covered Lake Sakakawea, the largest lake in North Dakota.
