Alsask, Saskatchewan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Alsask is a village in west central Saskatchewan, Canada, 60 km west of Kindersley and just east of the Alberta border. Provincial highway 44 runs to the east of Alsask, and highway 7 lies a few kilometres to the north. Its name combines the names of Alberta and Saskatchewan, although it is a misconception that it straddles the border between the two provinces (it is actually adjacent to the border). Its most notable landmark is a radar dome used for many years by the Canadian Armed Forces to aid in national defense.
