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 northeast is Old Fort Union, a classic frontier trading post of the 1830s to Civil War era.
