The Keya Paha River (Template:IPAc-en Script error: No such module "Respell".)[1] is a river flowing Script error: No such module "convert".[2] through the U.S. states of South Dakota and Nebraska.
The name is derived from the Dakota language ke'-ya pa-haTemplate:', meaning "turtle hill",[3] specifically Turtle Butte.[4] The river's name was given to Keya Paha County, Nebraska, through which it flows.[5]
The river originates in Todd County in south central South Dakota, at the confluence of Antelope Creek and Rock Creek near the town of Hidden Timber.[6] It flows in a generally southeasterly direction through Todd and Tripp counties in South Dakota and then through Keya Paha and Boyd counties in Nebraska.[7] It ends at its confluence with the Niobrara River about Script error: No such module "convert". west of Butte, Nebraska.[8] The river has a year-round flow, except for winter ice, and has a quality of water better than all other South Dakota rivers.[9]
In 1861, the border between the Nebraska and Dakota territories followed the Keya Paha River from the 43rd parallel to the river's confluence with the Niobrara; it then followed the Niobrara to Missouri. This situation lasted until 1882 when the boundary was changed to follow the 43rd parallel all the way to Missouri;[10] the change added portions of Keya Paha and Boyd counties to Nebraska.[11]
Discharge
At a gaging station south of Naper in Boyd County, the river's mean discharge was Script error: No such module "convert".. The maximum mean annual discharge was Script error: No such module "convert"., recorded in 1962; the minimum mean annual discharge was Script error: No such module "convert"., recorded in 1976.[12] The peak flow recorded at that point was Script error: No such module "convert"., registered on July 1, 1962.[13] From July 22 to July 30, 1976, the discharge was recorded as zero.[14]
