2017 Map of Lake Reservoir

About this map

Water management in Phillips County's semiarid rangeland is the central theme of this landscape, dominated by a network of catchments and drainage basins. The namesake Lake Reservoir sits near the center of the sheet, part of a series of vital water sources including Monster Reservoir, Badger Reservoir, and Dan Reservoir. These features, along with the Wildlife Reservoir and Buckskin Reservoir to the southeast, suggest a terrain primarily utilized for livestock grazing or wildlife conservation, where man-made infrastructure is essential for sustaining the local environment.
