Westby and the settlement of McElroy sit at the intersection of the Northern Plains and the Canadian border, where the boundaries of Montana and North Dakota meet the United States international line. The landscape is defined by the unique glaciated pothole topography of the Missouri Coteau, characterized by numerous water bodies such as Flat Lake, North Lake, and Mc Cone Lake. This 2020 survey documents the local infrastructure of Sheridan and Divide counties, highlighting the rural road network including N Westby Rd and McElroy Rd that connects isolated farmsteads to spiritual and community hubs like the Westby Catholic Cem and McElroy Cem. The map provides a detailed view of a borderland region where section lines and county divisions dictate the rhythm of life across a water-potted prairie.
