Lake Gaston dominates the southern landscape of this Virginia-North Carolina borderland, its intricate shoreline creating numerous inlets and points near the settlement of Elams. The terrain is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Rattlesnake Cr and Pea Hill Cr, which flow through the undulating countryside of Brunswick County. This 2022 survey captures the area's rural character, where small communities like Ebony and Ankum are connected by a web of local routes such as Gasburg Rd and Co Rd 903. Genealogists will find several family-named burial sites across the quadrangle, including Powell Cem, Reid Cem, and Clary Cem, illustrating the deep-rooted local history of the region. The map also highlights the prominent Horseshoe Bend along the reservoir's edge, a notable geographic feature for those navigating the waters near the state line.
