Dry Prairie Rural Water Tower

I saw several water repositories in northeastern Montana but this tower was easily the most impressive of all.  


"Dry Prairie Rural Water is committed to delivering clean, affordable, and dependable drinking water that will improve the quality of life and create economic opportunities throughout Northeast Montana."

I talked to a few of the locals and according to them the tower is relatively new...only about five years old.

    1. This is a common design throughout this corner of North Dakota.

  2. Doesn't look as though it would stand up to a big wind, being so top heavy. Impressive feat of engineering.

    1. They're a design marvel and will stand up to just about anything Mother Nature can throw at them.
