베이커 카운티‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪7‬개의 호수

Every time we have enjoyed the atmosphere at Anthony Lake, it has been surprisingly quiet with far fewer people present than expected. The lake has a boat launch and is very accessible for bringing a canoe or other water vessel. A popular place for fishing, the scenic mountains surrounding the lake make you feel truly disconnected from the world in the best way possible. There is a trail around the entire perimeter of the lake that is great for a stroll with pets or children - or even yourself! The lake also has camping, both RV and tent sites available, along with 3 yurts you can reserve to lengthen your stay.

True to its name, the lake is blanketed with a plethora of lily pads. The lake is just off the side of the Black Lake trail, accessible by the boat launch to Anthony Lake. Come early enough and you might even hear the croak of hundreds of bullfrogs.

A gorgeous, isolated lake with a very easy hike in order to access. The trail follows the West side of the lake. I believe the lake gets its name from the black soil around and under the lake. Not many seem to know about this gem, so do not be surprised to find yourselves the only ones there. The trail only has one small moderate section - for roughly one fifth of a mile, otherwise it is quite flat or only a moderate uphill as it follows the stream. The trail is very well defined and kid/dog friendly. Pack a lunch or even fishing gear for an enjoyable afternoon.

Thief Valley Reservoir is a very large body of water outfitted with a boat launch, 10 campsites, and picnic spots. Many people come here for the fishing and wind surfing. From the trail, you can overlook the water with the Eagle Cap Wilderness off in the distance.

Unity Lake is a popular camping and water-sports destination. Surrounded by wilderness areas, many people call this place a home base over the weekend. The trail itself is a dirt trail that follows the lakes eastern bank through an exposed hillside. There are plenty of diverging paths all along the hillside, so you could really choose any one of them including a path that runs a little higher up the mountain closer to the tree line.

Located just up a small trail from the "Little Alps", Van Patten Lake is set in a forest of lodgepole pine, grassy fields, and wildflowers. There are not any fees to use the area and traffic is usually pretty light. This lake has mountain views and large flat shores to have a picnic.

Anthony Lake is located at a lung burning 7,100 feet. Many people flock here in the summer as the large campground stays pretty cool in the warmest months and the scenery offers a nice mix of rocky boulders, conifers, and tranquil views.

Fish Lake is a picturesque lake situated in an old-growth forest. There is a campground located here making for a great basecamp before heading out to run on the numerous trails spidering out from the lake. There are 3 flush toilets and potable water.
