Morgan–Monchy Border Crossing

The Morgan–Monchy Border Crossing connects the town of Loring, Montana with Val Marie, Saskatchewan on the Canada–US border. It is reached by U.S. Route 191 on the American side and Saskatchewan Highway 4 on the Canadian side. These roadways were not paved near the border until the late 1980s. This crossing is where the proposed Keystone Pipeline was to cross the border.
