The snowpack provides the majority of the water supply for the reservoir, which is managed by the Bridgeport Reservoir Company. The water is mainly used for agricultural purposes in the surrounding area, but also supports recreational activities such as fishing, boating, and camping. The reservoir is known for its trophy-sized trout and scenic beauty, making it a popular destination for anglers and outdoor enthusiasts.
