     Maxwell Pond is one of the lakes here in the Wallowa Mountains. And if that's not sufficient there's a lot more fun things to do in the Wallowa Mountains. Wallowa Valley Stay and wash is a great local campground, and there is a wonderful hiking trail close by called the Bear Creek Trail. This lake is so wonderful. If you came for an overnight stay Goebel's is a good spot to camp, and if the weather is good, you can go for a hike along the Crooked Trail.

While you're here at Maxwell Pond it's a perfect idea to stop at Diamond Prairie; on a pleasant day you can take  
               a hike along the Cougar Ridge Trail.
