     The beauty of Big Clear Lake attracts many people from all around. This lake is so wonderful. Camping at Big Clear Lake is delightful fun, Yellowjacket Campground is a delightful local campground; there are some nice whitewater spots on Panther Creek. Have a great hiking adventure along the Clear Creek Trail, and Bighorn Crags is stunning and can be spotted from here. Now, you may feel that's plenty but there's even more fun things to do here in the Salmon River  
   Mountains.
At Big Clear Lake you don’t see much rainfall; of all the months in a year June is the one with the most rain; the driest of the months is February. There's just no way anybody can get bored here at Big Clear Lake. Going for a hike along the Ship Island Trail will let you absorb the natural beauty of this vicinity; Big Clear Lake lays in the shadow of the Bighorn Crags. Take a hike on the Waterfall Trail; whitewater paddling is not for everyone
 
               but if it's for you then, we recommend Camas Creek.
And if that's not enough there's loads more enjoyable things to do in the Salmon River Mountains.
