               by hotel is Skamania Lodge; Lewis River - North Fork has a wonderful whitewater paddling spot nearby. This lake is so wonderful.
What would a place like Bear Lake be without out of the ordinary nearby highlights like East Crater, and there are pleasant spots to explore along the Ridge Trail. Just can't get enough of the Northern Cascade Range. Bird Mountain can be spotted from Bear Lake; Bear Lake is magnificent enough to spend more than a day at, Cultus Creek Campground is a magnificent local campground. Bear Lake gets a large amount of water; the month with most of the rain is December, and July is when it's the driest.
This lake is so wonderful. Going for a hike on the East Crater Trail is always a brilliant adventure, and camping at Forlorn Lakes Campground is always a glorious experience.
