Bear Lake Valley Visitor’s Guide
Bear Lake is often called the Caribbean of the Rockies for its intense turquoise blue water. As visitors catch their first glimpse of the lake, they marvel at its color and wonder what makes the lake so blue. The unique color is due to the reflection of the limestone deposits suspended in the lake. Each season lends its own characteristic to the lake. Year-round, enjoy a number of recreational and cultural activities. Experience the rush of snowmobiling. Ski at a family-owned resort. Navigate your personal watercraft across the turquoise water. Feel the rod-bending excitement of a Bear

BEAR LAKE
HistoryThe Bear Lake Valley was first inhabited by Shoshoni Tribes, then fur trappers. Between 1825 & 1840, many mountain men and Native Americans met on the south end of the lake to swap goods and stories! These meetings became known as rendezvous.
The first permanent settler to the Bear Lake Valley was reportedly Thomas Pegleg Smith, a crusty, one-legged, ex-mountain man. During the 1840s, he set up a trading post to provide supplies to the emigrants on the famous Oregon Trail.
Early Mormon pioneer leader, Brigham Young, sent the first group of permanent settlers to Bear Lake Valley in 1863. This group was led by Charles C. Rich. The County bears his name.
Bear Lake has 70,000 acres of turquoise blue water. The lake is so large, you feel as if you have it all to yourselves. This resort area is known for excellent boating, sailing, water-skiing and wakeboarding. Numerous boat ramps are located around the lake, to make launching your boat a breeze. Utah State Park Marina has a 7-lane boat ramp. See the Bear Lake map for boat ramp locations. Watercraft and ATV rentals are available. www.bearlake.org
BoatingBoating is popular on this large lake. The lake is 20 miles long and 8 miles wide, providing space and calm water for all types of watercraft.
Water-Skiing/WakeboardingWater-skiing and wakeboarding are favorite sports on the lake. You don’t have to worry about riding across the wake of another boat. Plenty of room and no crowds!
SwimmingSwimming off sandy beaches is fun for the whole family. Be sure to bring a sun umbrella, a picnic lunch and beach toys!
SailingSailing has always been a popular sport on the lake. A gentle breeze generally rolls off the lake in the early afternoons. Glide on the lake and enjoy one of its spectacular sunsets.
SPRING, SUMMER & FALL ACTIVITIES
SUP Boarding, Kayaking, & CanoeingThe shores around Bear Lake offer a great location for activities like Stand-Up Paddle boarding, kayaking, and canoeing. Not only is it great exercise but it allows you to enjoy the natural beauty of Bear Lake.
FishingBear Lake is renowned as a trophy, cutthroat trout fishery where the Idaho State Record cutthroat of 19 lbs. was caught. Lake trout (Mackinaw) also inhabit the lake and can exceed 30 lbs. Trolling and jigging from boats can be done throughout the year (winter and spring months being the most
productive). Four species are unique to Bear Lake: the Bonneville cisco; the Bear Lake whitefish; the Bonneville whitefish; and the Bear Lake sculpin.
GolfYou can golf three seasons of the year in the Bear Lake Valley: spring, summer and fall. Perfect temperatures make for perfect days of golf. The golf courses are located on scenic hillsides, with spectacular views of the lake. Courses have reason able green fees and challenging holes.
Backcountry Riding/ATV’sHundreds of miles of trails connecting Idaho and Utah provide all levels of riding and the surrounding canyons make for a challenging ride with plenty of fresh air in an unreal setting.
Horseback RidingTrails in nearby canyons wind through the high mountain wilderness area. Just minutes from Bear Lake, you can be astride a horse and a million miles from home. As you ride through the picturesque canyon trails, enjoy nature and the wildlife of the Rocky Mountains.
SPRING, SUMMER & FALL ACTIVITIES
Bird Watching/Wildlife ViewingThe Bear Lake National Wildlife Refuge, on the north shore of Bear Lake, has over 18,050 acres of marsh, open water and grasslands dedicated to preserving bird and wildlife habitats. The refuge is home to Sandhill Cranes, herons, Snowy Egret, White Pelicans, Canada Geese and a variety of waterfowl. It has one of the largest White-faced Ibis production areas in the western U.S. Walking trails are found throughout.
As you drive around the lake, don’t be surprised if you see deer in the early spring sampling the fresh green leaves and foliage. Perhaps you
may spot a moose knee-high in the turquoise water or see Trumpeter Swans and pelicans floating on the lake. Bring along your binoculars and see what you can spot!
Cave Exploring
Minnetonka Cave is nine fascinating rooms of stalactites, stalagmites and banded travertine. Don’t miss one of the most striking stalactites, the Bride, known for its lacy appearance. Three stalagmites, over 10 feet high, have diameters of nearly four feet. Enjoy a 90-minute, half-mile walk into this beautiful cave. Be prepared for the 400 steps up and down and bring a jacket, since the cave is cool
(40°F year round). The road is paved to the mouth of the cave.
Camping & PicnickingCampgrounds are dotted around the lake offering a range of sites, from tent to full hook-up (many also have electricity, water and even showers). Picnic tables and restrooms are available at the state park beaches.
Pickleville PlayhouseSince its first production in 1977, Pickleville has been known for its unforgettable brand of family fun and entertainment. Two shows are performed every season so make plans to see both!
Hiking, Cycling, & Mountain BikingAs spring makes its way into Bear Lake, early leaves and flowers welcome you as you ride or walk a lake or mountain trail. Temperatures are mild, even during the middle of the summer, so hiking is pleasant. The fall months of September and October are some of the prettiest and most scenic with the brightly colored leaves and the tranquility of the lake. The canyons on the west side of Bear Lake offer challenging and fun trails through mountain wilderness.

Monster Polar Plunge and Cisco Disco Every January, anglers wade waist-deep in the icy water or fish through the ice, dipping nets for the Bonneville Cisco. Once the limit has
been caught, the crowds shift to the State Park Marina where the Bear Lake Monster Polar Plunge takes place. Costumes are encouraged, families and groups are welcome, and every participant gets a prize!
