Mountrail County, County seat in northwestern North Dakota, US
Mountrail County spans 1,942 square miles of terrain with rolling hills, lakes, and the Missouri River flowing along its southwestern boundary.
The Dakota Territory legislature established the county in 1873, named after Joseph Mountraille, a Metis voyageur and mail carrier from Pembina.
The Fort Berthold Reservation, headquarters of the Three Affiliated Tribes of Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara people, occupies a substantial portion of the county.
The county offers administrative services, including zoning permits, tax assessments, and social services through its offices in Stanley.
