Storrie Lake and its surrounding high-desert drainage systems anchor this 2010 survey of the northwestern outskirts of Las Vegas. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Sapello River to the north and the deep channel of Arroyo Pecos cutting through the center. Small settlements and named locales like Emplazado, San Antonio, and Gerk are interspersed between local landmarks and essential services. Genealogists and local historians can locate established burial grounds including North Pilgrims Rest Cemetery and Saint Anthonys Cemetery, while the presence of the Los Alamos Post Office and Las Vegas Municipal Airport highlights the infrastructure serving this portion of San Miguel County. The map also detail irrigation and water management features such as the Lake Isabel Inlet Ditch, which connects higher elevations to Lake Isabel at the northern edge of the quadrangle.
