Bear Lake - Garden City, UT

After a fun and exciting week back to school at Utah State, Justin and I took a day to get away and just relax. This was Justin's 2nd time ever to Bear Lake. (The first was last winter when we drove out to Paris, ID and then back around the frozen lake).
We learned something neat about the lake--it changes colors! We learned its color depends on the weather. Becuase of the limestone and calcium build-up the lake reflects the color of the atmosphere that day. The lake can be blue (fair, sunny weather), green (cloudy, overcast) or aquamarine (stormy)! It was blue for us.
