2017 Map of Capeneys Lake

About this map

Medicine Lake dominates the northwestern corner of this landscape along the border of Roosevelt and Sheridan counties. The area is defined by its water systems and the depressions that collect them, including the central Capeneys Lake and the drainage of Sand Cr to the northeast. A network of rural section-line roads, such as Ten Mile Rd and Sandhills Rd, provides access across the glaciated terrain. The topography is further punctuated by Gaffney Pass, a geographic transition point between the larger lake basin and the surrounding prairie. This 2017 survey details the contemporary road network, from local routes like Deubner Rd to the southern Sheridan-Roosevelt Co Rd, reflecting the sparse but organized settlement pattern of the northeastern Montana plains.
