The town of Beardsley serves as the focal point of this mid-1970s survey, situated along the Burlington Northern line on the border of Big Stone and Traverse counties. The landscape is defined by the heavy presence of managed wetlands and waterfowl habitats, including numerous segments of the National Waterfowl Production Area and the Mallard Hole State Wildlife Management Area. This concentration of conservation land alongside active Gravel Pits illustrates the dual nature of the region's land use during this era. Genealogists will find the locations of three distinct burial grounds near the settlement: Beardsley Cem, St Mary Cem, and Midway Cem. To the south, the terrain descends toward Big Stone Lake, while the interior is drained by systems like Fish Creek and County Ditch No 7.
