The Knife River Mine defines the industrial landscape of this eastern Montana region, set against a backdrop of complex terrain and vital waterways. This 2017 survey shows the extraction area situated amongst the deep ravines of Peabody Coulee and Garden Coulee, demonstrating the topographical challenges of resource recovery in Richland County. To the southeast, the landscape shifts toward the fertile bottomlands of the Yellowstone River, where islands like Gros Ventre Island and Marys Island sit near the wide expanse of Valentine Flat.
