Glacial potholes and prairie wetlands define the landscape along the border of Ward Co and McLean Co in this rural stretch of North Dakota. The terrain is characterized by numerous small basins and marshes, indicative of the region's geological history. Human settlement is marked by isolated landmarks, most notably the Second Russian Baptist Cem and Saint Mathew Cem, which serve as significant genealogical markers for the local farming community. Transport is facilitated by a grid of rural roads, including Co Hwy 12 and the historic alignment of Old Hwy 83, which bisect the various townships. This topographic study emphasizes the intersection of section-line roads like 28th St NW and 29th Ave NW with the natural, undulating drainage patterns of the prairie.
