Bear Lake Undeveloped Campsites
DESCRIPTION:
5 campsites with fire rings. Rustic. And enjoyed because of it. Equestrian riders find it a nice, peaceful place to ride. The only nearby trail is the PCT, but logging roads can be used also.
Bear Lake is small but has good access and was planted to Brookies in 1998.

DIRECTIONS:
To Bear Lake Undeveloped Campsites
Drive south from Tahoe City following Highway 89 for 4.2 miles around the west side of Lake Tahoe. Near the Kaspian Camping Area (C), turn right (west) up Blackwood Canyon Road #03. Follow the paved road into the canyon and 7.1 miles to Barker Pass where pavement ends.
After passing through Barker Pass, follow the main logging road (#03.4) to the south west and stay to the left at the first intersection that would take you to the Powderhorn Trail trailhead via the #03 Road. The lake is on the left (west) as you travel south for about 5 miles from the pass. There is a small primitive road (#03.4.10) that drops left (west) to the lake and campsites.
Camping (Rating: Good)
