Bear Lake is the largest freshwater lake in Utah, and falls over the borders of both northern Utah and Idaho. The lake is often referred to as the Caribbean of the Rockies because of its deep turquoise color caused by limestone deposits in the water. Bear Lake is a popular summer destination for people from all over Utah and southern Idaho. The lake is also famous for the Raspberry Day Festival that is held in Garden City, the nearest Utah city to the lake. The festival is held during the first day in August, and features raspberry cook-offs and local talent shows.
