2010 Map of Beardsley

About this map

Beardsley serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in Big Stone County, defined by a grid of rural roads and the winding path of Fish Creek. The village contains essential local landmarks including the Beardsley Post Office, while the surrounding area is punctuated by historical burial grounds such as Beardsley Cemetery, Midway Cemetery, and Saint Mary Cemetery. The terrain is characterized by numerous small basins and glacial depressions, typical of this portion of western Minnesota near the South Dakota border. To the southwest, the map touches upon the shores of Big Stone Lake, a significant regional water feature. This 2010 survey illustrates the enduring settlement patterns of the township, where transit is primarily facilitated by a network of county highways like County Hwy-55 and County Hwy-1.
