About this map

Flat Lake Oil Field marks the industrial activity of this prairie landscape along the Montana-North Dakota border near the Canadian line. The terrain is defined by a dense network of glacial pothole lakes, including the large Round Lake, Flat Lake, and Mc Cone Lake. These water bodies dominate the township grid, often dictating the path of local routes like N Westby Rd and McElroy Rd.

Settlement is concentrated at the southern edge in Westby, with the smaller community of McElroy located further west. For family historians, the Westby Catholic Cemetery and McElroy Cemetery provide specific points of interest for genealogical research. The map illustrates a modern rural economy where traditional agriculture and resource extraction coexist with the natural geography of the northern plains.
