     If you came for an overnight stay Pinnacle Mountain Recreation is a perfect spot to camp, and if you get bored of Jim Lake you could also have a look at close by Gull Lake. A splendid nearby hotel is Gold Miners Hotel; get your heart beating on the pleasant whitewater of Moose Creek. Summertime highs at Jim Lake usually tend to be in the 60's. Throughout the dark hours of summer temperatures drop down into the 40's. The wintertime brings highs down to the 20's,  
   and night lows at Jim Lake through the wintertime mostly dip into the 0's.
This lake is so wonderful. A round of golf at nearby Palmer Golf Course is a splendid way to kill some time, and the best way to spend a winter day is on the slopes of close by Alyeska. This lake is located in the wonderful Talkeetna Mountains. If you want a pleasant time in the great outdoors just come on up to the Talkeetna Mountains. Kroa Kamping Resorts-alaska is a splendid
 
               campground nearby, and Jim Lake is not the only location close by, Gull Lake is a close by lake.
These mountains rock, just look at all the cool things to do in the Talkeetna Mountains. Life's too short to enjoy all the cool things in close proximity to Jim Lake. Looking for some flowing water? Try McRoberts Creek, and whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then, we recommend Wolverine Creek. It is very dried up here at Jim Lake generally; most of the rain falls all through September while March is mostly the driest month.
