''I've only been through once and like most people went straight through on the I90, but rides were relatively easy to catch.''[[User:Thewindandrain|Thewindandrain]] 06:11, 25 September 2012 (CEST)

{{Template:States USA}}"I have gone through North Dakota a couple of times, and it's one of my favorites to hitch through. A majority of my time was spent on Highway 2, which you can hitchhike standing right on the road, and the shoulder is fairly wide most of the way. Plenty of room for people to pull over, and the only time I've ever encountered a cop in ND was in Fargo, when I was hitchhiking in the city limits. The cop didn't even leave his vehicle, just politely told me that I couldn't hitch from in the city limits, but that I would be fine on the on-ramp.The area around Williston is both good and bad. You can get rides very easily, even if you're a big burly hairy man, because so many working men are traveling to and from the oil fields. But the crime rate is also very high. I could never in good conscience recommend a female travel alone through Williston. The population is something like 80% men, and very lonely men who could be harmful." -Ned

South Dekota was much easier to hitch through. More frequent rides and nice generous people.
 
I hitched from a really small town in Nebraska called Bancroft north to Fargo, ND via the U.S. 77 / I- 29/ US 75. While hitching through North Dakota, i found it extremely difficult to find the next ride.
 
Warning: If you find yourself dropped at the Dekota magic casino, which is on the state line right off of the I-29 be prepaired to be asked to leave. They don't like hitch hikers there. The best thing to do would be to just stay at the on ramp of the I-29. There is litterly no way out of the casino property without being on the interstate.
