Marshall Lake in Arizona is a small marshy body of water located about 9 miles southeast of Flagstaff at an elevation of 7,138 feet. This valuable wildlife habitat is managed in partnership by Ducks Unlimited and the Arizona Game and Fish Department. During wet cycles, the lake contains sufficient water to be stocked with trout by the Arizona Game and Fish Department, though in dry years it may temporarily disappear entirely. The lake is characterized by its marshy nature and is generally full of coots and other waterfowl. Even when dry, the area offers excellent outdoor recreation opportunities with primitive campsites on the east side providing exceptional views of the peaks from pine-sheltered locations.

Arizona Steam Access Laws
Determined by the Arizona Navigable Stream Adjudication Commission. ANSAC says for a waterway to be navigable, it must have been capable of commercial trade and travel at the time of statehood (1912). The waterway must also be wet, with water from more than just precipitation. As of 2016, ANSAC only defines the Colorado River as navigable, though decisions are pending for other streams. The federal government and private owners control all other streambeds The extent to which the public has rights in non-navigable watercourses depends upon the ownership of the streambed. For example, if the federal government has retained ownership, the public likely enjoys rights to boat, fish, wade, recreate, and portage. If, on the other hand, the streambed is privately owned, then the public may not boat, fish, or otherwise access the watercourse without the owner's permission.
