Beautiful mountain lake with crystal-clear water (unfortunately a bit cold :-))

Good opportunity to rest, but busy.

The bear is dancing here.

Great for a run or bike ride

A smattering of picnic tables dot the water's edge and a signpost helps identify native and non-native fish in the pond. This is a fantastic place to bring kids, with a highly accessible shoreline and shaded wall to sit on at the edge of the water. It's also a great spot to take a break from your ride!

There are parking lots where you can pull over on either side of the summit. A historic marker on a large rock on the south side tells the story of how Spooner Summit played a role in 1800s mining history and served as a source of lumber for prospecting industries.

There is a short accessible path to the overlook from Highway 50 with restrooms and three stone benches. You can leave the crushed gravel path to the overlook and climb up on the rocks of the shoreline to get a better view. This spot is well worth the stop!

If a refueling break is needed, this might be the healthiest spot, reasonably priced, with outdoor seating near the beach, along the main drag across from the campground.
