Westby and the nearby settlement of McElroy anchor this 2024 landscape on the border of Montana and North Dakota. The area is defined by a dense concentration of glacial potholes and permanent water bodies, including North Lake, Round Lake, and Mc Cone Lake. These natural features are preserved within the sprawling Sheridan County Waterfowl Production Area and the Divide County Waterfowl Production Area, highlighting the region's importance as a migratory habitat. The map reveals the rigid section-line road network typical of the northern plains, such as N Westby Rd and 108th St NW, which negotiate the marshy terrain. Genealogists will find the Westby Catholic Cem located just north of the Westby townsite, serving as a landmark for local families in this prairie region.
