About this map

Lake McConaughy dominates the northern reaches of this Keith County landscape, where the waters of the North Platte River are impounded. The terrain is defined by a series of deep drainage features cutting through the high plains toward the shoreline, including Ash Camp Canyon, O'Brien Canyon, and Kelly Canyon. This early 1970s survey illustrates the intersection of natural topography and mid-century recreation, specifically at the Lake McConaughy Landing Strip and the nearby Campground. The map provides specific detail on the upland breaks, where Berry Gulch and Ogallala Gulch carve into the plateau south of the reservoir. A small Trailer Park near the water's edge reflects the seasonal and residential development that followed the creation of the lake.
