The Turtle Mountains dominate this 2020 survey of the international border region, where a dense cluster of glacial lakes spans the boundary between North Dakota and Canada. Metigoshe Lake is the centerpiece of the landscape, featuring complex shorelines and named landmarks such as Masonic Island, Bear Island, and Rugby Point. The distribution of local landmarks suggests a long-standing community tied to these waters, with transportation corridors like 107th St NE and Lake Loop Rd providing access to the various bays and peninsulas.
