This Landsat image, taken October
25, 1982, is located in southeastern Alberta and northern Montana. The
east-west line marks the international boundary and is evident because
of different land uses (rangeland in Alberta and farmland in Montana).
The three peaks in the left center are the Sweetgrass Hills and the other
peak in the right bottom is the Bear Paw Mountains. The Milk River valley
is the major valley which crosses the border.
This image has a scale of 1:1,000,000 and was taken from Landforms of Alberta by D.G. Smith (1987), page 101. |
