     Get yourself into a kayak and hit Wolverine Creek, and let's not forget Jim Creek which is a stream that you may run into while here. This lake is so wonderful. If you come at the right time of year, Moose Creek offers some splendid whitewater, and Bestview Mobile Home Village is a glorious campground nearby. Kroa Kamping Resorts-alaska is a great local campground, and if you get bored of Barbel Lake you could also stop at close by Gull Lake.
