The settlement of Cushing sits as a central hub in this lake-rich portion of Morrison County, positioned along the BNSF Railway and the Little Elk River. This landscape is defined by its intricate glacial topography, where numerous water bodies like Lake Alexander, Fish Trap Lake, and Shamineau Lake are interconnected by complex shorelines and named points. Cultural landmarks are scattered throughout the rural landscape, including the Cushing Union Cemetery near the town site and the Scandia Valley Cemetery further north. The map reveals a mixture of seasonal and permanent residency through the dense network of local roads such as Island View Dr and Hohler Bay Dr, which provide access to numerous islands and bays. A sense of the local economy and infrastructure is provided by features like the Hines Farm Airport and the expansive rail line that cuts through the southern terrain.
