Chevelon Canyon Lake is a small reservoir located in northern Arizona, about west of the city of Heber. It is one in a series of small, canyon-bound lakes located on the Mogollon Rim, collectively referred to as the ''Rim Lakes''. It is among the most difficult to access in the region. It is also the second reservoir on Chevelon Creek, downstream from Woods Canyon Lake. Chevelon Canyon Lake is small and moderately deep, having an average depth of and a surface area of . The long, narrow lake is formed by an earthen dam impounding the Chevelon Creek in the eponymous Chevelon Canyon. It was constructed in 1965 as part of a flood control and recreational project. The lake, in spite of its relative proximity to the town of Heber, is only accessible via of unpaved forest road, much of which is difficult or impossible to pass due to heavy winter snowfalls between November and April. There is no direct road access to the lake, the final segment being closed to vehicular access and requires a short hike. As the road does not access the lake, boating is limited to small, light canoes or personal flotation devices that can be carried in. Amenities are limited to primitive campsites.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Chevelon Canyon Lake )〕 In spite of the lake's remoteness and lack of access, it is a premier fishing location due to its stock of rainbow and brown trout.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mogollon Rim )〕 The facilities are maintained by Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest division of the USDA Forest Service. ==Fish species== *Rainbow Trout *Brown Trout * Arctic Grayling 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chevelon Canyon Lake」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
