About this map

The arid landscape of Phillips County is defined by the high ground of Dry Fork Ridge, a prominent terrain feature that directs the flow of seasonal drainage across this portion of the Missouri River Basin. The water management strategies of the mid-1960s are evident in the dense network of small impoundments throughout the area, including Dusky Reservoir, Happy Gang Reservoir, and Hoverson Reservoir. These scattered catchments, along with named springs and tanks, highlight the vital importance of water storage for ranching in this high-plains environment.
