2011 Map of Wild Horse Lake East

About this map

Wild Horse Lake dominates the upper reaches of this 2011 survey, sitting along the international boundary between Montana and Saskatchewan. This High Line landscape is characterized by its intermittent water bodies and ephemeral drainage patterns typical of the northern plains. The expansive basin of the lake reflects the seasonal hydrology of Hill County, where water levels vary significantly across the arid terrain. Infrastructure is sparse in this borderland, defined primarily by the crossing of Simpson Rd and the presence of the U N Reservoir to the south. The mapping shows a remote ranching or agricultural environment where natural contours and water management features dictate the layout of the few maintained roads.
