Rock Crossing Campground

Rock Crossing Campground is located 2 miles from  Blue Ridge Reservoir  (also known as C.C. Cragin Reservoir). This narrow, winding body of water looks more like a canyon-bound river than a lake. Nestled between forested canyon walls it provides picturesque water recreation in a secluded, wooded setting. The Arizona Fish and Game department stocks rainbow trout annually and some browns also are present in the lake. There’s plenty of sightseeing, wildlife watching, hiking and mountain biking available here in these canyon-carved uplands. If just talking about all this activity makes you want to kick back and relax with nothing more strenuous to do than watch the squirrels bury pine seeds, then this forested area is probably just the place for you. Group Campouts and Events:  This campground does not  have facilities for large groups or group activities. If one campsite cannot accommodate your group (eight at a single site, 16 at a double site), please visit www.recreation.gov to plan your group camp-out at  Elks, Moqui, or Long Valley group campgrounds . Call the Mogollon Rim Ranger District at 928-477-2255 for additional information.
