2020 Map of Capeneys Lake

About this map

Capeneys Lake and the northern portion of Medicine Lake anchor this landscape along the border of Roosevelt and Sheridan Counties. The map reveals a remote prairie environment defined by seasonal hydrology and subtle elevation changes, notably at Gaffney Pass. Settlement patterns are sparse, with the community of Lakeside situated along the western shore. The transportation network consists primarily of section-line roads and specialized routes like Sharptail Rd and Big Lake Rd, reflecting a land use tied to the open range and local water access. In the northeast, Sand Cr meanders toward the larger lake basins, while the Sheridan-Roosevelt Co Rd serves as a primary east-west corridor for the region.
