    Bear Lake is a very beautiful lake in beautiful surroundings. This lake is one of the great places here in the Northern Cascade Range. Be careful coming to Bear Lake, you might not ever want to go back home again. Don't leave Bear Lake without first going for a hike along the Pyramid Lake Trail.

Lake Chelan National Recreation Area is one of the destinations close to Bear Lake that are great to go to, and there are brilliant spots to explore along the Hidden Lake Trail. Whohoo, so much entertaining stuff in one place! The Northern Cascade Range rocks! There's so much to do here at Bear Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Mineral Park Campground is a
 
               nice place for that; you can go for a hike on the Sulphur Mountain Way. Bear Lake sees pretty high levels of precipitation; December is when you get the most rain here, and July is when it's the driest.
This lake is so wonderful. Bear Lake is wonderful enough to spend more than a day at, Newhalem Campground is a wonderful local campground; whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then, we recommend Cascade River. Sibley Creek is a pleasant local stream, and get your heart beating on the nice whitewater of Cascade River.
