- Black Kettle National Grassland, north on highway 83 about 55 miles (Take highway 60 from Canadian and look for the turnoff about 10 miles out). Part of Cibola National Forest. While most of this park is in Oklahoma, this separate 576-acre park includes Lake Marvin, providing a beautiful relaxation spot for any Panhandle traveller who misses seeing lots of trees.
