Cyber-trip pioneer towns and mountains in southeast Idaho
Bear Lake www.bearlake.org offers a little of everything from fishing and sailing in the summer to skiing in the winter. Click on "Spring/Summer/Fall Activities" to look up fishing and see just how big those trout can get, and check out hiking trails, caves, camping and water sports. We're too late for Raspberry Days, Aug. 3-5, but you could file it away for next summer. And whether you travel with a tent and sleeping bag, a camper trailer or just suitcases, there are plenty of places around the lake to spend your nights.
Pick up more details from the Bear Lake Chamber of Commerce www.bearlakechamber.org (with bear sound effects) including a link to "Untraveled Road" for photos, or the Bear Lake Rendezvous CofC www.bearlakechamber.com which covers the Utah side of the lake.
If you only followed that route, you could miss a lot of this corner of the state. Look at the Pioneer Country Travel Guide www.seidaho.org and take the "City Tour" for links to info on Pocatello, Lava Hot Springs and Blackfoot. Feeling tired and achy after a long hiking trip? Consider their "Hot Pool Tour" for the local natural hot springs. Follow the "Pioneer Tour," the "Oregon Trail" or one of several "Scenic Tours."
