Benedict serves as the primary settlement center in this region of North Dakota, situated at the intersection of Main St and 2nd Ave. The surrounding landscape is defined by the prairie pothole region's characteristic hydrology, featuring numerous small seasonal water bodies and larger features like McMann Lake in the northwest. The gridded road network, consisting of routes like County Hwy 23 and 111th St SE, dictates the agricultural organization of the land. This survey provides a clear look at the rural infrastructure of McLean County in the early 21st century, showing the precise layout of the town site of Benedict and the vast network of township roads and avenues that connect the dispersed farmsteads across the plains.
