One exceptional attraction for hikers is the Smutty Bear Trail area which leads to Gavins Point. Gavins Point is a lookout high above the deep waters of Lewis and Clark Lake. It's terrific for day hikes, late night romantic hikes and picnics. The most fascinating event of the year is to watch the ice flows by moonlight in the early spring as the lake thaws. The campground is officially closed at this time of year so admission is free.
