Description
Bear Mountain is more of a park than a hiker's paradise. However, you can get a pretty good day hike up Bear Mountain if you stay of the beaten path. At the top, there is a tremendous view with a nice area to eat your lunch. If your good, you can get to the top in 45min-1hr. If your average, figure two hours each way. If you stroll... who knows! It's a good workout because it's steep if you want it to be! Have fun.
