About this map

Del Bonita sits at the northern edge of this high plains landscape, defined by the international border between Canada and the United States. The remote settlement is anchored by the Whetstone International Airport, a unique facility that straddles the boundary line. The drainage of the Milk River winds through the central and southern portions of the quadrangle, carving distinctive terrain features such as Coal Bank Coulee and Kennedy Coulee.

In the eastern reaches, Croffs Lake stands out as a prominent water feature in an otherwise dry, agricultural region. A network of rural roads, including Boundary Rd, Chalk Butte Rd, and Radar Base Rd, provides access across the townships of T37N and T36N. The map illustrates a sparse, wide-open landscape where the Public Land Survey System grid and international geopolitical boundaries are the primary structural elements.
