2 PARKS & RECREATION Parks & Recreation Areas Program As part of its mission to conserve and protect natural resources, the Upper Big Blue Natural Resources District (NRD) has been involved in several large-scale dam and reservoir projects since These multi-purpose projects are designed for flood and erosion control, groundwater recharge, and use in progressive groundwater research. As a result, the additional benefit of these projects is the opportunity for outdoor recreation. The NRD has developed six sites: Smith Creek Recreation Area, Pioneer Trails Recreation Area, the Bruce L. Anderson Recreation Area and Recharge Lake, Recharge Lake Archery Range, Overland Trail Reservoir and Recreation Area, and Oxbow Trail Recreation Area. These sites provide habitat for wildlife. Area residents can enjoy activities, such as camping, fishing, boating, hiking, as well as winter sports such as skiing, sledding, tobogganing, snowshoeing, snowmobile riding, and ice skating. On this page is a District map locating the Parks & Recreation areas inside the Upper Big Blue NRD. The following pages are detailed maps of each recreation site that the NRD manages. Pioneer Trails Recreation Area Aurora Bruce L. Anderson Recreation Area Recharge Lake & Archery Range Overland Trail Reservoir & Recreation Area Oxbow Trail Reservoir & Recreation Area Ulysses Smith Creek Recreation Area Beaver Crossing = Recreation Areas 2 Number of Acres: Water & Land Inside Recreation Areas Managed by the Upper Big Blue NRD The Upper Big Blue NRD recreational areas are utilized year-round with people participating in camping, boating, hiking, hunting and fishing, as well as winter sports including cross-country skiing, sledding, tobogganing, snowshoeing, snowmobile riding, and ice skating. These sites are designed for public use and we are proud to offer these areas for recreation. At this time, we currently do not manage any wetland areas. The accompanying table highlights the land size of each recreation area.

3 Overland Trail Recreation Area The Overland Trail Recreation Area, located 2.0 miles east and 1.0 mile south of York, features a 17-surface-acre lake which stores 121 acre feet of water. The site was named for the nearby Overland Trail, which during the 1860 s, was a spur off the Oregon Trail. The primary purposes of the dam and reservoir were designed to provide flood control, aquifer recharge and recreational opportunities. Camping, picnicking, and hiking are permitted in designated areas. Boating and canoeing are also allowed along with skiing, sledding, tobogganing, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, and ice skating. Development at the facility remains limited to preserve wildlife habitat. 3

4 PARKS & RECREATION Oxbow Trail Recreation Area Constructed in 1998, the Oxbow Trail Recreation Area is located 1.5 miles east of Ulysses, Nebraska, and features a 39-surface-acre lake which can store 274 acre feet of water. Named for the nearby Oxbow Trail used by pioneers during the mid-1850s, the dam and reservoir was designed to provide flood control, wildlife habitat, and recreation. The lake s water source is supplied by rainfall and underground springs. A fishing jetty is accessible on the west side of the lake along with a boat ramp and dock. The recreation area is open to hiking and camping. The trapping of furbearers is permitted during the allowable hunting and trapping season. A picnic shelter and tables are also available. 4

5 Aquatic Life in the Recreation Areas Major Game Fish typically found at the Upper Big Blue Natural Resources District recreation areas include: (clockwise from top) Bluegill, Green Sunfish, Crappie, Channel Catfish, Black Bullhead, and Largemouth Bass 5

6 NRD PROFILE Once dismissed as The Great American Desert, Nebraska now is known both nationally and abroad for its agricultural bounty and natural wonders. We sometimes take these wonders for granted, but they surround us from one corner of the state to another; from Niobrara to Red Cloud, from Scottsbluff to Omaha. The Nebraska Legislature enacted a law in 1969 to combine 154 special purpose entities into 23 Natural Resources Districts (NRDs). NRDs were officially established on July 1, These Districts are unique to Nebraska and to the rest of the country. NRDs are local government units with broad responsibilities to protect our natural resources. Major Nebraska river basins form the boundaries enabling NRDs to respond best to local needs. An elected Board of Directors governs each District. Much of their funding comes from local property taxes. In most cases, your local NRD typically uses 1-2 percent of all property taxes collected in the District. NRDs help Nebraskans respond to natural resources challenges with local control and local solutions. Partnerships have been built with various agencies and organizations, including the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources, other state and federal agencies, municipalities, counties, and private organizations. Natural Resources Districts the greatest sources of the state s wealth and its assurance for future prosperity More than 56,000 citizens rely on the Upper Big Blue Natural Resources District (NRD) to provide direction and assistance in the wise use, conservation and development of our soil, water and related natural resources. The NRD is dedicated to the conservation and careful development of natural resources to serve everyone s needs. Many NRD projects and programs leave long-lasting results: dams, terraces, drainage ditches, windbreaks, reservoirs, recreation areas (including parks, campgrounds, and trails), groundwater management (both quantity and quality), and irrigation and crop production educational opportunities. The Nebraska Association of Resources Districts, a statewide association created by NRDs, provides administrative services, legislative representation, statewide communication, and coordination for the 23 independent Districts. NRDs have experienced tremendous growth in the responsibilities given to them by state statute, especially in protecting groundwater. The NRDs inform Nebraska s young people by supplying information, education, and other outreach efforts. It is vital that future generations understand the importance of securing Nebraska s natural resources. 7
