Clark County State Lake Largest in the Southwest
Clark County Lake near Kingsdown Kansas was created 1935 to 37 by the CCC and grew to be the region’s largest body of water. After draining in 1960 and restocking, it reopened in 1963 with strong fishing for channel catfish, bass, crappie and bluegill. The site offers camping picnicking trails and Indian artifact hunts in a canyon setting, with nearby Dalton gang lore and striking bluff views.
