Sidney hugs the North Dakota border where the prairie
stretches as far as the eye can see. The confluence
of the Yellowstone and Missouri rivers lies nearby in
a 75-mile long irrigated valley. It is a major wheat
and sugar beet producing region. Located in the Williston
Oil Basin, oil pumping and exploration can be found
throughout the area. Sidney's Mondak Heritage Center
features area history and includes an extensive street
scene of the early 1900s. To the north east is Old Fort
Union, a classic frontier trading post of the 1830s
to Civil War era.
