Lake McConaughy and Kingsley Dam.  The red line was added to show the "bathtub" ring or
watermark where the lake level is during normal years.

The shoreline and boat ramp was in the foreground where the vegetation ends.  It is now 65 feet lower
and well in the distance where the vehicles are parked.  The dam is in the distance off to the left.

This is the boat ramp near the town of Lemoyne.  Note the lake is well off in the distance.

This is 1.5 miles east of Spring Creek showing a dry Lake McConaughy with a small amount of inflow and
a few pools of remaining water.  Normally, the depth of water would be up to 50 feet deep in this area.
