Terry Badlands WSA, Protected wilderness study area in Terry, Montana
The Terry Badlands encompass 19,000 acres of eroded cliffs, sandstone formations, deep gullies, and table-topped buttes across the Montana landscape.
The geological features of Terry Badlands formed through millennia of wind and water erosion, creating the current network of canyons and rock formations.
Sheridan Butte contains inscriptions from United States Army troops dating back to the 1800s, marking military presence in this Montana territory.
Access to Terry Badlands requires driving 3 miles northwest from Terry on Highway 253, crossing the Yellowstone River to reach Scenic View Road.
The area contains one of the most eastern populations of limber pine trees in North America, adding to its ecological significance.
