Route description
editAlong Highway 914's route, it passes by notable lakes such as Pinehouse Lake and Gordon Lake, crosses the Churchill River, and follows Haultain River for much of its length. Gordon Lake Recreation Site is accessible from the highway.[5]
Although the official highway map of Saskatchewan shows the highway terminating at Key Lake, Google Maps and its aerial photography shows the road actually continues on to the McArthur River uranium mine further to the north. Access to this portion of the road is restricted, and is therefore not part of the official highway network.[6][7]
