Kennedy Coulee


The Kennedy Coulee is a coulee - a dry gorge or valley - in northern Montana and southern Alberta. Its exposed rocks of the Judith River Formation are a rich source of fossils.
The Kennedy Coulee begins in the Kennedy Coulee Ecological Reserve, a 1,068 hectare park in Alberta on the southern border with Montana, and continues southeastwards for several miles into Hill County, Montana before turning north and joining the Milk River valley near the US-Canadian border.
The name "Kennedy's Coulee" dates back at least to 1891, when a coal mine was under development there.
