About Us

Bear Lake is our home.

​Bear Lake Local is where we write about living here — by a beautiful mountain lake, in a charming small town — and share a few practical goods for slow living.

We keep it going because this place is worth noticing and writing things down helps us see it better. Also, we like making things. That's it.

I keep this space moving.

After years of working in a more structured world, I wanted something slower and more hands-on. This site is part journal, part outlet, and part excuse to make things.

Bob spends more time outside than online.

He pays attention to wind shifts, shoreline changes, and, importantly, where the good rocks are. He has a mental map of this place that I’m still learning.

He keeps things practical.

We love to get questions, ideas, local tips, or just a note to say hey. We may be slow to reply but we're definitely listening.
