Rock
Crossing Campground is the closest campground
to Blue Ridge Reservoir. Just 4 miles away, Blue Ridge
Reservoir is an 8 mile pocket of water that is both tranquil
and inviting. Rainbow, brown and brook trout all ply this
body of water and the relaxing surroundings make the trip
here well worth it. If you are one who likes to view wildlife,
this is a great place. Commonly seen are elk, bear, deer
and eagles. Rock crossing trail cuts across both the north
and south fingers of the reservoir for those looking for
a moderate hike. The Happy Jack Visitor Center is located
14 miles north of Clints Well on Forest Highway 3 (Lake
Mary Road).
