The Carson River winds through this Nevada landscape, feeding into the extensive Lahontan Reservoir along the eastern edge of the quadrangle. This 2011 survey illustrates the residential growth of Silver Springs, showing a dense grid of streets such as Revere St and Hale St that extend toward the shoreline. Further south, the map identifies Davis Station and the distinctive Big Bend of the Carson, where the river makes a sharp northern turn toward the reservoir. The topography reflects the arid basin character of Churchill Valley, transitioning from the structured suburban layout of Silver Springs Beach to the more open terrain along the riverbanks. Local history and genealogy researchers will find the specific street-level detail and the relationship between the river and the developing desert communities particularly useful.
