Natural Features The geology of the Sheyenne National Grassland is characterized by shifting sand dunes and sandsheets surrounding the meandering Sheyenne River. The sand was deposited in an underflow fan in early stages of former glacial Lake Agassiz. As the water of the great glacial lake receded, the sand was exposed to the air. As a result, there are three types of eolian landforms, or landforms created by wind, in the Sheyenne National Grassland and surrounding region; high-relief dunes, low-relief dunes, and sand sheets. High-relief dunes or mainly restricted to within one or two miles of the Sheyenne River trench. Low-releif dunes are less than 30 feet high and have a hummocky, wind-blown surface that is generally stabilized by vegetation. The third type of eolian landform, the sandsheet, consists of sand and silt that can be up to 10 feet thick in places. Blowouts, or shallow depressions caused by removal of sand, occur where little or no vegetative cover to hold the sand in place. Blowouts occur in both the dunes and sandsheets. Today, native and non-native grasses cover the landscape with pockets of Bur Oak savannah and Aspen stands.
