About this map

Willshaw Flats characterizes this stretch of the northern frontier, where the high plains of Montana meet the Alberta border. The 1986 survey documents a landscape of ephemeral water and geological depressions, most notably the expansive Lake Bed and Alkali Flat. Human presence is marked by the utilities required for survival in an arid environment, including a Well Covered Reservoir and scattered wells. In the southeast, the terrain drops toward the drainage of Beaupre Coulee. This map serves as a detailed record of the international boundary during the mid-1980s, tracing the line between Toole County and Warner County and the border separating the United States and Canada. Local industry and genealogy are represented by a roadside Gravel Pit and a lone Cem, providing specific points of interest for researchers tracing land use and burial sites in this remote borderland.
