2021 Map of Medicine Creek Dam

About this map

Harry Strunk Lake and the Medicine Creek Dam dominate this Frontier County landscape, illustrating the mid-century water management projects that transformed the Nebraska plains. The reservoir, created by the damming of Deer Cr, serves as a central hub for the surrounding ranching and farming lands. The small settlement of Orafino sits to the north, connected by a network of rural routes like Lake Rd and Rd 407 that navigate the deeply incised drainages. The terrain is defined by dramatic erosion patterns, notably Mitchell Creek Canyon and Deer Creek Canyon, which reveal the complex topography of the Republican River basin. Local history and genealogy interests are anchored by the Pleasant View Cem, while smaller water features like Brusle Reservoir and W Muddy Cr show the localized hydrology of the region.
