2012 Map of Cedar Bluff Dam
USGS Topo · Published 2012About this map
The Cedar Bluff Dam anchors this part of Trego County, creating the expansive Cedar Bluff Reservoir where the Smoky Hill River is impounded. This landscape is a hybrid of water management and energy production, with the northern and eastern reaches of the quadrangle dominated by petroleum extraction at the Younger Oil Field, Sunny Slope Oil Field, and Groff Oil Field. The reservoir's western shoreline is developed for public recreation, featuring several specialized camping areas including the Wagon Rut Campground, Bluffton Campground, and Broken Spur Campground. Below the dam, the river course continues eastward, joined by Tunnel Creek as it winds through the dissected plains. The map reveals the precise intersection of natural drainage patterns and the artificial geometry of county roads like Co Rd-1747 and Co Rd-571.
