About Slope County Fair

The Slope County Fair in Amidon celebrates North Dakota's least populous county — Amidon is the smallest county seat in the United States, and the county's cattle ranching on the rolling badlands and Short Grass Prairie defines one of the most remote and authentically western communities in the Northern Plains.

What to Expect

Expect a very small fair with livestock exhibits, 4-H competitions, and the frontier spirit of one of America's most remote counties, where cattle outnumber people by a significant ratio.

Visitor Tips

Amidon, with a population under 30, is the smallest incorporated county seat in America. The White Butte — North Dakota's highest point at 3,506 feet — is in Slope County. The surrounding badlands and short-grass prairie provide excellent pronghorn antelope and mule deer hunting.
