At Bear Lake you can distinguish Spring Valley Mountain, and since you're here you can take a hike along the Yellow Creek Trail. Lots of precipitation falls at Bear Lake; during January this area sees the most snow, and July is when it's the driest. Now, you may imagine that's a heap but there's even more fun things to do here in the Northern Sierra Nevada. A good nearby hotel is

Potato Patch Campground
 | 14 miles away We camp at Potato Patch campground annually with several other families. It is a very nice campground on a beautiful river. There is not a lot to do nearby though and it is a primitive campground with pit toilets and no showers. There are no hookups for RVs, but we tent camp anyway. We mostly play by the river (very cold water). Our attraction is the beauty and the people we camp with. We used to fish, but it is all catch and release. I can definitely recommend it but you have to be looking for a relaxing and beautiful setting and mostly doing not much of anything. ... |
