COMMENTS:
Van Hook, like it's sister town Sanish, was engulfed by the Garrison Diversion Project and the resulting Lake Sakakawea. REMAINS: Back in the '70's, there were some really bad droughts. The story is that at one point, the water got low enough in some places to expose some of the old foundations. Can't confirm, just hearsay. |
| The Van Hook Arm of Lake Sakakawea covers the area where the town used to be. Van Hook and it's sister town Sanish were relocated to what is now called New Town and a newer Sanish. Submitted by: Matt Rothchild |
