About this map

Tuttle Creek Lake dominates the central landscape of this northern Kansas quadrangle, where the Big Blue River and Fancy Creek converge. Established as a reservoir in the mid-20th century, the lake is surrounded by extensive conservation and recreational lands including the Tuttle Creek State Wildlife Management Area and Fancy Creek State Park. The geography is defined by the broad Blue Valley, where the water levels are monitored at a dedicated Gaging Station near the Randolph Bridge. Several smaller tributaries such as Baldwin Creek, Shannon Creek, and Booth Creek drain the surrounding hills into the reservoir basin. This 1983 revision captures the established shoreline and the network of local quarries and recreational areas like the Swede Creek and Baldwin Creek Recreation Area that characterize the modern usage of the valley.
