     This lake is so wonderful. Hiking along the San Bernardino Peak Divide Trail is good fun, and dry warm beds await you at Best Western Big Bear Chateau. You'll need more than a day to discover everything Jenks Lake has to offer, you can camp at Camp Mile High Pines, and the best way to spend a winter day is on the slopes of nearby Bear Mountain. A short spree to San Y Ca Spring is always worthwhile, and if you like swamps you're in luck, Cienaga Grande is right  
   close by.
Don't try to stop me, cause I'm havin' a glorious time here at Jenks Lake. Stay the night at Council Campground; Barton Flats is a beautiful place any time of year. And that's not all the things to do here in the San Bernardino Mountains. Dry Lake is a great lake near Jenks Lake, and you might also want to pay a visit to Staircase Canyon while you're here at Jenks Lake. You'll wish for more hours in a day to enjoy all the fun things at Jenks Lake.
 
               Take a hike on the Forsee Creek Trail; Snow Summit is a very popular ski area in the neighborhood.
Jenks Lake is a beautiful lake in the San Bernardino Mountains. Throughout the months of summer at Jenks Lake highs are mostly in the 80's. Summer night lows descend down to the 50's. For the duration of the wintertime highs are ordinarily in the 40's, and through the dark hours in the winter at Jenks Lake temperatures drop to the 20's. Just can't get enough of the San Bernardino Mountains. Have a good hiking adventure along the South Fork Trail, and a round of golf at nearby Big Bear Mountain Golf Course is a good way to kill some time.
An average amount of rainfall falls at Jenks Lake; the month of January is the wettest with most of the rain; June is when it's the driest. And if that's not enough there's a lot more entertaining things to do in the San Bernardino Mountains. This lake is so wonderful. East Fork Barton Creek is one of the streams nearby that might be worth a visit, and Big Bear Lake Cabins is a nice site to get some rest.
There are other places here than Jenks Lake, for example Dollar Lake, and lots of people from Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario come here.
