Rolling prairie extends from the Black Hills with the Belle Fourche River and tributaries creating limited valley bottomland. Pine-covered ridges and grassland parks characterize the transition zone landscape.

Cattle ranching predominates across extensive rangeland with hay production concentrated in valley areas with irrigation potential. Limited crop production focuses on small grains adapted to the semi-arid climate.
