Hiking
Window Mountain Lake is wonderful for swimming and fishing. Fed by meltwater, the lake at the foot of Mount Ward sparkles green and blue. While rainbow trout frolic in the water, you have a good chance of seeing little pikas on land. With a bit of luck, you might also come across bighorn sheep and white mountain goats on the lakeshore. Grizzlies also visit occasionally. The only thing you can't see from the lake is Window Mountain, which gives the lake its name, with its striking rock window.
