Frisky, also known as Frisky Lake, is a Federal-owned earth dam located in Yuba County, California, specifically in BEALE AFB. Built in 1961 by the USAF, the dam serves the primary purpose of flood risk reduction and recreation. Standing at a height of 17 feet with a hydraulic height of 16 feet, Frisky has a storage capacity of 100 acre-feet and a surface area of 11 acres. The dam spans 535 feet in length and is associated with the TR-HUTCHINSON CREEK LAKE.

Managed and funded by the US Air Force, Frisky has a spillway width of 35 feet and a maximum discharge of 280 cubic feet per second. With a hazard potential rated as high and a moderate risk assessment, the dam undergoes inspections every five years, with the last one conducted in May 2016. Although the condition assessment is not available, Frisky remains a vital structure for flood risk reduction in the area, highlighting the importance of maintaining and monitoring water resources for climate resilience.
