What It Is

A natural or man-made body of standing water visible from the road.

How Rare Is It on Road Trip Bingo?

Uncommon. Depends entirely on your route; lake-region drives make this common, dry plains and desert routes make it rare.

Spotting Tip

Check the map ahead for blue patches near your route — routes through the Great Lakes region, Minnesota, or reservoir country will turn this up often.

Minnesota's official nickname, "Land of 10,000 Lakes," is actually an undercount — state surveys put the real number well over 11,000.
