As of the writing of this, there are 429 official units of the National Park System; however, this number can be misleading. National Park System units are found in all 50 states, in the District of Columbia, and in the U.S. territories, except for the Mariana Islands. In this article, we’ll be taking a look at the 3 National Parks sites in North Dakota that will experience the eclipse in 2044, all of which are in totality!

North Dakota has 1 National Park and 2 National Historic Sites, all of which are in the path of totality! These are the only 2 National Historic Sites in the path of totality in the US, and Theodore Roosevelt National Park is 1 of only 2 National Parks in the path of totality. The other National Park in totality is Glacier National Monument in Montana.

Please note that sun will set below horizon before eclipse finishes.

Site	Totality Percent
Fort Union Trading Post National Historic Site	100%
Knife River Indian Villages National Historic Site	100%
Theodore Roosevelt National Park	100%

Here’s a table to help out with totality information.

For a map showing all of the National Parks in the US NPS system and their relationship to totality, we have an article here. It’s easier to show everything in one page, in addition to individual pages for each US state in to.
