Bear Lake is a lake within the American states of Idaho and Utah.

Bear Lake is located on the border of Utah and Idaho and is ideal for marathon swimming with the clean and beautiful blue water. The lake is at an elevation of 5,924 feet (1,806 meters). Its area is approximately 109 square miles (282 km²). Because of its higher elevation its water temperature is typically much colder than many other lakes situated in the Wasatch Front. Due to its size, it is not as congested with ski boats and other fast moving watercraft, as other smaller reservoirs in the area. This makes Bear Lake an ideal place for open water swimming.

Open Water Swimming

The Bear Lake Swimming Association is responsible for observing and recognizing Bear Lake Crossings. Whether that be a width (7 miles), or a length (19 miles (30.5 km)) In July the association organizes the [Bear Lake Monster Swim] event where swimmers can race the width and also get their name listed in this, the records for all Bear Lake Crossings.

Logged Crossings (Length approximately 19 miles) "Monster Slayer"
