Rock Creek High Lakes aka Bear Lake Trail

In Lessan National Forest, in the High Lakes OHV area, 519 Bear Lake Trail leads to Butterfly Falls. You will encounter several named obstacles like Pucker Point, a narrow rock outcropping you must drive around, where a simple mistake could send you plummeting off the side of the trail. You also have V-Notch, a 15-foot steep rock section with a deep hole in the center. You will need a built vehicle; although lockers are not required, having them would be a good idea, or at least a winch. It is also recommended to have a full belly and side armor due to all the down trees, narrow squeezes, and rocks.

Many people say this is their favorite trail because of its spectacular scenery, dense forest, green pastures, deep green bushes, and flowing creeks. It has excellent dispersed camping, too, with several areas for dispersed camping. A popular location is down by the old shingle mill at Bear Lake(no longer there), where the flat ground makes for an ideal place to camp. The area is large enough for 5+ vehicles. Another perk of this spot is a nearby swimming hole in Rock Creek.

Once at the falls, the trail continues as "Pipejam," an insanely hard trail where body damage and breaking are almost guaranteed even for the most built rigs. This makes Bear Lake an out-and-back trail for 99% of the people.
