Positioned just 10 miles west of the North Dakota border; and nestled against the Yellowstone River in the south; Sidney; Montana; has a rich history filled with hearty pioneers who settled in the area starting in the 1870s. Through hard work; and in both good times and bad; those pioneers managed to establish themselves and create a new culture filled with industrious; tireless homesteaders. From the Lower Yellowstone Irrigation Project; which made agriculture a viable commodity in the area; to widespread ranching; and finally to the boom-and-bust world of black gold in the Bakken; Sidney soon boasted a strong economy fueled by fertile land and hardworking people. Schools; churches; and many businesses were built; giving entrepreneurs the opportunity to prosper in the region. Featured here in over 200 vintage photographs is the history of this pioneer town; once boasted as the �Metropolis of the Lower Yellowstone Valley.�
