About this map

Willshaw Flats characterizes the open, high-plains landscape of northern Toole County along the international boundary. This map captures the region as it appeared in 2020, defined by the stark demarcation of the Canada United States of America border at the northern edge. The settlement pattern is largely shaped by a grid of rural roads, including Border Rd, Three Mile Rd, and Iverson Rd, which navigate the various coulees and flats of this northern Montana terrain.

Local history is anchored by the Sunburst Cem located along Co Rd 552 in the southwestern quadrant. The presence of ephemeral water bodies and wetlands across the central portion of the quadrangle suggests the delicate drainage of the northern prairie. These features, along with family-named routes such as Kohles Rd and Dewald Rd, provide essential reference points for researchers tracing lineage and land use in this sparsely populated border region.
