The reach is a 5.6 mile long Unconfined Anabranching reach type, indicating minimal valley wall influence and extensive side channels and forested islands. In this area the alluvial valley bottom is approximately 2.5 miles wide, and this broad valley has formed in the relatively erodible Cretaceous-age Bearpaw Shale.TypeTextGenredocumentsLanguageeng Date2016-03-16SubjectRivers--MontanaYellowstone RiverYellowstone River WatershedContributing InstitutionMontana State LibraryGeographic CoverageYellowstone RiverMontanaDigital CollectionYellowstone River Corridor StudyDigital Formatapplication/pdfDigitization SpecificationsBorn PDF documentsCopyrightCC0
