C.C. Cragin (Blue Ridge) Reservoir is a striking, narrow body of water nestled within canyon walls, resembling a river more than a traditional lake. The steep canyon sides limit shore access, making it a prime spot for kayaking, canoeing, and fishing rather than swimming or sunbathing. Anglers frequent the reservoir for its rainbow trout, regularly stocked by the Arizona Game and Fish Department. Besides fishing, the area offers opportunities for wildlife watching, hiking, and mountain biking amidst scenic views.
