Mpd No. 4-10, also known as Horsethief Reservoir, is a local government-owned water resource nestled in Hodgeman, Kansas, near the city of Jetmore. This recreational reservoir sits along Buckner Creek and was completed in 2009 with a primary purpose of flood risk reduction and recreation. The earth dam, standing at 88 feet tall and 7210 feet long, boasts a storage capacity of 52,464 acre-feet and a surface area of 452 acres.

With a high hazard potential and a satisfactory condition assessment, Mpd No. 4-10 is regulated by the Kansas Department of Agriculture and undergoes regular inspections, with the last one conducted in June 2018. The reservoir's spillway, with a width of 500 feet, is uncontrolled, and it has a maximum discharge capacity of 96,172 cubic feet per second. Despite its moderate risk rating, this picturesque reservoir offers a tranquil escape for water resource and climate enthusiasts to enjoy recreational activities in the heart of Kansas.
