This page was part of the 1013 Project. It was originally created or significantly expanded by members of an introductory composition class at the University of Minnesota. Our work on this article ended on May 9, 2007, and we invite all Wikipedians to jump in with further expansion and revision. Be as BOLD in editing this article as you would any other Wikipedia article, but please be good about communicating your changes through edit summaries and talk pages. Students will check back on these articles in the coming months, and we can learn from the changes you make. For more information on the project, visit the project archive.

Stratigraphy / Geology

[edit]

From what I know, this is a relatively undeformed area, with sedimentary rocks piling up in stratigraphic order. Therefore, cretaceous rocks could not be below the Precambrian Sioux Quartzite. I'm going to change it with a reference. Awickert (talk) 02:05, 9 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Made the change. Awickert (talk) 02:11, 9 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wind Farm

[edit]

I'd like to see this section more focused and to the point. The wind farms are part of Buffalo Ridge but they are not Buffalo Ridge. If there's a need for encyclopedic information on the wind farms themselves, at some point that should be broken into it's own article.Prk166 (talk) 00:11, 17 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There is a wind farm called Buffalo Ridge Wind Farm - this should have a separate page. In addition to this one there are numerous (at least 20) others that have been constructed on Buffalo Ridge. Yes this section needs to be redone.--71.214.237.152 (talk) 02:12, 26 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Buffalo Ridge Wind Farm now has its own article. --Aflafla1 (talk) 04:50, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Draninge to east side of ridge is incorrect

[edit]

East drainage of Northern part of Couteau des Prairies does flow into Minnesota, but for the Buffalo Ridge portion(southern counties), it drains into the Des Moines River (West Fork). --71.38.175.146 (talk) 21:36, 4 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Headwaters of the Redwood River (Minnesota River basin) lie mostly in Pipestone & Lincoln counties. JC Shepard (talk) 18:25, 12 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. I'm seeing now that the WDM River drainage lies a little further east of most of it. Could we say that the area is mostly to the Big Sioux and Minnesota, with some southeast portions draining into the West Des Moines River? --71.38.171.114 (talk) 22:01, 24 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Assessment comment

[edit]

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Buffalo Ridge/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

The article states that Buffalo Ridge is the highest point on the Coteau at 1995 feet. However, there is a point near Summit, SD, also on the Coteau, at over 2040 feet, and Summit, South Dakota's article claims a 2014 ft elevation for the town..
