Road to C.C. Cragin Reservoir to close for season


Clints Well, Ariz., Sep. 6, 2016, For Immediate Release —
The main forest road that leads to C.C. Cragin (aka Blue Ridge) reservoir is currently be closed to vehicles, for public safety due to construction traffic using the road.

            Forest Road 751 is closed at Rock Crossing campground as improvements are made to the boat ramp by the Arizona Game and Fish Department. Improvement work will include building a retaining wall, widening the boat ramp area, constructing a disabled parking area and additional concrete paving of the ramp.  These projects will provide safer and more efficient access to the reservoir for recreational boaters.

            The road closure will likely continue until seasonal road closures are implemented, meaning Forest Road 751 will be closed until approximately April 2017.

            People may visit the reservoir by foot by walking down Forest Road 751 to Rock Crossing Trail, which is the trail that leads down to the reservoir. However, no vehicles will be allowed on Forest Road 751 beyond Rock Crossing campground.

            For more information about the reservoir status and Mogollon Rim Ranger District, please contact the ranger station at 928-477-2255. To view the official closure order and map, please visit the Coconino National Forest’s forest orders web page at http://tinyurl.com/ForestOrders.  Information about C.C. Cragin Reservoir water levels can be found on SRP’s website at https://www.watershedmonitor.com/CCCragin.aspx.
