Bear Lake

These are the mountains overlooking Bear Lake. It's about 2 and 1/2 hours from Salt Lake City. Bear Lake is partly in Utah and partly in Idaho. These photos are taken on the Utah side.

Bear Lake is known for being very blue. It is not known for bears - I've been there almost every summer of my life and never seen one. There's also a rumor of a "Bear Lake Monster," but I've never seen that either.
