Frye Mesa Reservoir

Tucked into the rugged slopes of the Pinaleño Mountains above Safford, Frye Mesa Reservoir is a hidden high-desert gem perfect for fishing, picnicking, and escaping into nature. Fed by Frye Creek and surrounded by canyon walls and native flora, this small but scenic reservoir offers stocked trout and catfish, primitive camping spots, and quiet views — all less than an hour from the valley floor.
