The Black Kettle National Grassland contains 31,300 acres with 30,724 acres located near Cheyenne, Okla., and the remaining 576 acres located near Canadian, Texas.
The McClellan Creek National Grassland contains 1,449 acres near Pampa, Texas, and includes the Lake McClellan Recreation Area.
The tracts that make up these jointly administered grasslands were acquired by the U.S. Department of Agriculture in the late 1930s and officially were designated as grasslands in 1960.
Recreation areas have been developed around Skipout, Spring Creek and Dead Indian lakes in Oklahoma and offer fishing, boating, camping and picnicking.
The Lake Marvin Recreation Area, which covers the grassland, in Texas offers camping, fishing, picknicking, and a one-mile wildlife-viewing trail.
Also part of the grassland is Lake McClellan, the biggest attraction in the 1,449-acre McClellan Creek district near Pampa, Texas. This recreation area offers fishing, boating, water skiing, camping, and RV hookups. Please contact the grassland office for lake levels.
