Shush Be Tou, also known as Big Bear, is a federal-owned recreation dam located in Apache County, Arizona. Built in 1966 by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, this earth dam stands at a structural height of 36 feet and spans 375 feet in length, with a normal storage capacity of 180 acre-feet. The dam is situated on Bog Creek, under the jurisdiction of the DOI BIA, and serves the primary purpose of recreation for water resource and climate enthusiasts in the area.

Despite its modest size, Shush Be Tou poses a high hazard potential, with a very high risk assessment rating. While the dam's condition assessment is not available and inspection frequency is set at 5 years, emergency action plans have been prepared and updated periodically. The controlled spillway type and lack of associated structures contribute to the dam's risk management measures, which remain unspecified. With a history of federal funding and oversight, Shush Be Tou remains a focal point for water resource and climate enthusiasts seeking recreational opportunities in the beautiful landscapes of Arizona.
