Sparkling waters
will capture your attention as you enjoy a hike around
Bear Lake, a 107-acre lake with camping and picnicking
facilities as well as a kitchen pavilion. The lake
is popular with anglers in spring and fall.
Birding:
From the camping area, hike the 4-mile trail that rings the lake,
watching migrants like ovenbirds and swallow-tailed kites in
springtime. Red-shouldered hawks echo across the lake and pied-billed
grebes dive, hunting for fish. There is no hunting on the trail
or in the vicinity of the lake. Nearby uplands can be good
for chuck-will’s widows and turkey.
