2017 Map of Westby North

About this map

The state boundary between Montana and North Dakota bisects this prairie landscape, where the town of Westby sits at the intersection of international and interstate lines. Just south of the Canadian border, the topography is defined by a dense concentration of glacial potholes and small water bodies, including Mc Cone Lake, Gaulke Lake, and North Lake. These wetlands dot the section lines of the Public Land Survey System, which organizes the region into townships such as t37n r58e and 164n 103w. Near the small settlement of McElroy, the Westby Catholic Cemetery serves as a significant genealogical landmark for the local community. The map illustrates a remote agricultural area where movement is dictated by a rigid grid of gravel roads like North Westby Road and 151st Avenue NW, connecting isolated farmsteads across the High Plains.
