2022 Map of Cedar Bluff Dam

About this map

Cedar Bluff Reservoir dominates the western portion of this Kansas landscape, formed by the damming of the Smoky Hill River. The surrounding terrain in Trego County is defined by a rhythmic series of draws and ridges, including Wildon Draw to the southeast and the winding path of Tunnel Cr. The area is organized by a precise grid of local roads, such as Aa RD and 370 Ave, which facilitate movement through the high plains. This 2022 survey illustrates the modern management of water resources in a region where the river once flowed unimpeded, showing how the reservoir has become the central geographical feature of the township sections.
