Native Americans, pioneers and cowboys may have shaped the course of a young Oklahoma City but these days this oil-rich center has come into its own for other reasons, though never forgetting its old-west culture.
Water is stored in Lake Thunderbird, the reservoir produced by the construction of Norman Dam,Norman Project, and is pumped into two pipelines, one serving Norman, Oklahoma and the other serving suburbs of Oklahoma City. It is the largest body of water within a 100-mile radius. Norman Dam is on the confluence of Hog Creek and Little River. The Lake is approximately 6,000 acres of open water. Accessible from numerous roads. Several boat ramps and camping facilities. Predominate species include largemouth bass, crappie, catfish, and saugeye. Fishing is year-round.
