Seneca Creek (New Mexico/Oklahoma)

Seneca Creek, also known as Cienequilla Creek,[1] is a watercourse in New Mexico and Oklahoma.[2] Running south of, and roughly parallel to, Corrumpa Creek, it originates south-southeast of Des Moines, New Mexico and east-northeast of Grenville, and travels generally east, eventually crossing into Oklahoma.[2] Where it finally joins Corrumpa Creek about 4.5 miles (7.2 km) northwest of Felt, Oklahoma, the combined stream becomes the Beaver River.[1][3]

Seneca Creek is impounded at Clayton Lake, part of New Mexico’s Clayton Lake State Park and Dinosaur Trackways,[4] about 13 miles northwest of Clayton, New Mexico.[5] The lake, with 170 surface acres at capacity, was established in 1955 specifically as a recreational site by the State Game and Fish Commission.[6] In the May to September timeframe it offers boating and fishing for rainbow trout, walleye pike, crappie, bluegills, bullheads, large-mouth bass, and channel catfish, while the rest of the year the lake is a refuge for waterfowl.[6] The associated park features camping, hiking trails, and other amenities, as well as having one of the most extensive dinosaur trackways in North America.[7][8]
