A Grid of Fields in the Middle of a Wetland Delta

The Saskatchewan River Delta is a large inland delta straddling the Canadian provinces of Saskatchewan and Manitoba, and much of it is too wet for extensive farming. Its winding channels, lakes and marshes give the whole region curvy contours.

Then there is an "island" of straight-edged fields breaking up the pattern — farmland west of the town of The Pas that makes up Manitoba's northernmost agricultural area.
