This lake is so wonderful. Why not take a refreshing hike along the Choke Creek Trail, and you'll never forgive yourself if you don’t go skiing at Split Rock since you're here. Hiking is a popular thing to do around Bear Lake; Refuge Trail is a great local trail; Big Pine Hill can be spotted from Bear Lake. You'll wish for more hours in a day to enjoy all the fun things at Bear Lake. Very wonderful scenery and good
 
               skiing is what you get at Jack Frost, and The Woodlands Inn is a great spot to get some rest.
Don't you try to stop me, cause I'm havin' a great time here at Bear Lake. Bear Lake is right by the Boulder Field Trail; go to close by Balsam Swamp. Hagen Run is a stream that you may bump into while you're here, and if you came for an overnight stay WT Family Camping is a brilliant place to camp. There are some tremendous whitewater spots on Spring Brook, and Sand Spring is a magnificent local attraction.
This lake is so wonderful. There are other places here than Bear Lake, for example Nines Pond, and after a long day outdoors Shawnee Village Resort is a glorious place to spend a night or two. Bear Lake is a good place of typical rain; throughout the month of July you get the most rain around here, and January is when it's the driest.
