Merv Blevins, who farms in Bengough, Saskatchewan and Flaxville, Montana, describes the K Y Trail as follows:
“The road that runs from Regina down to Miles City follows Highway 34 [which becomes Highway 511 in Montana] (it was used) when they were doing cattle drives and things back in the day, but it’s also used by our Native Americans to come up to the turtle effigy that’s located just south east of Big Beaver, that’s a holy sight for them and they come there and they have a sweat lodge there every once in awhile and they use the port of Big Beaver.”

"Flaxville was originally founded as Boyer, about 2.5 miles southwest of where the town is now." It was named after "the Henry Boyer family at whose home the early railroad construction workers were fed." The current town was founded in 1913 following the arrival of a Great Northern Railway branch line that eventually ran from Bainville to Opheim. "The first post office was established in 1914 with Martha Bledsoe as postmaster." The name refers to the abundance of flax grown in the area. There are grain elevators beside the railroad tracks running through town.
