Bear Lake ID

[Cnsl1]

Headed to bear lake next week. I have a memory that there are some NOMs who live or vacation there regularly.

Anyone want to meet up and say hello, or have advice on where to go? I've been there before but do not live in UT or ID.

I've heard the lake is still frigid right now.

You should probably PM alas. She spends Summers in that area IIRC. This part of the board gets used infrequently so probably won't be seen by many.

Lake is cold, weather is crummy, thunderstorms every afternoon. Our visitors left because it was just too cold. And now we are headed out for a family vacation, so I would love to have a get together here, but I am gone for the next three weeks. The other local resident sold his home, so I don’t know of anyone else in the area.

We prefer the north end beach, morning to 2pm is best, then it usually gets breezy. We are planning some days up there in September. There's boat and jet ski rentals not too far away. We also like visiting Paris Idaho (antique store there, ice cave up Paris Canyon). Glacier lake and rope swing up Bloomington Canyon, Minnetonka cave up in the mountains above St. Charles. Lots of ATV trails up in those canyons east of the lake.
