Alticane was named after Mr. McKye's home town in Scotland. The town contained a Saskatchewan Pool grain elevator which has since been dismantled. The abandoned CNR branch line was also removed around 2015. Alticane is now considered a ghost town with approximately one dozen abandoned houses remaining. A cairn can be seen at the entrance to the town that commemorates the 70th (1998) reunion of the residents.
