Ray serves as the focal point of this Williams County landscape, situated near the headwaters of Beaver Cr and the northern shores of McLeod Lake. The town's grid is well-defined, featuring streets like 1st Ave W and Main St, and is flanked by two local burial grounds: Saint Michaels Cem to the northwest and Sunset Rest Cem to the west. This 2017 survey illustrates the agricultural organization of the High Plains, where a meticulous network of section roads—including 64th St NW and 115th Ave NW—dictates the movement across the prairie. The surrounding township boundaries, such as t156n r97w, reveal the enduring influence of the Public Land Survey System on the modern North Dakota countryside.
