States Spanned by the Great Plains

The Great Plains is a vast physiographic region stretching from the Rocky Mountains (west) to the Mississippi River (east), and from the Canadian border (north) to the Gulf of Mexico (south). It includes parts of 10 U.S. states:

  • Montana
  • North Dakota
  • South Dakota
  • Nebraska
  • Kansas
  • Oklahoma
  • Texas
  • Colorado
  • Wyoming

In Canada, the Plains extend across Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. The region is characterized by grasslands, agriculture (wheat, corn, cattle), and energy production.
