Bear Lake is great enough to spend more than a day at, Beaver Trails Campground is a great local campground, and going for a hike along the Mosquito Alley Truck Trail will let you absorb the natural beauty of this region. From a rain point of view Bear Lake is a quite typical place; September is the wettest month with most rain, and February on the other hand is the driest. This lake is so wonderful.

Much of the reason for that is that the bottom is very shallow (can freeze to the bottom and kill major populations of fish). Near the swamp, it is sometimes only inches deep and most boats cannot navigate ''the cove'' in the NE corner of the lake. The bottom appears to have a loose mud texture and is, therefore, easily disturbed. But, there is more to that story...
It is a fun lake for story-telling because it has as its bottom several feet of sawdust, which when merged with the natural sand and dirt compounds finds itself much like quicksand.
