Barrio Perico has had a hotel and a bakery, check and see if either has reopened.
Roads going out from the edge of the map:
Highway to the west connects Alamos to Minas Nuevas, the turn-off to Aduana and to Navajoa and Highway 15.
Road to the northwest goes to the Alamos airport which can accommodate small jets.
Road to the east goes to the historic Cemetario. Day of the Dead activities are in early November.
El Camino Real, the original colonial King's Highway, goes south to El Fuerte. The road to El Mirador which provides a sweeping view of Alamos, turns off to the left (east) just outside of town.
Arroyos are river beds. In the dry seasons they have little or no water. Cars and trucks drive across and footpaths follow the banks.
Never attempt to cross an arroyo if it has a lot of water. If you aren't sure, don't cross; the currents are very strong.
The Alamos Guide by BK Hamma and Donna McGee has several current maps. They also publish an Alamos Tourist Map. Both are available at Terracota Tienda (1).
This map is based on one in The Stately Homes of Alamos, by Leila Gillette.
