Bear Mountain when viewed from the east is one of many unassuming roll hills near Dawson Creek marked with a string of windmills. The west side of the mountain stands in stark contrast to the east side. Several rock outcroppings rise out of the forest, which also hides countless boulders. The guides give specific directions to several areas which are good for bouldering, climbing and exploring. Views start at 100 metres from the parking spots and can turn into walks of several km.

This hike already starts in the alpine, but still gains a decent amount of elevation. While hiking on the trail you walk through alpine forests, big boulders, and a beautiful alpine meadow. There is a formation of gravity defying rocks called the Spanish Armada and with a little bit of an imagination it kind of looks like a shipwreck on a mountain. Hiking further, and up higher past the Shipwre...
