| Bonnie Lure State Recreation Area provides a refreshing getaway. You may catch a rare glimpse of a pleated woodpecker. Visitors are often able to hook an elusive steelhead trout (otherwise known as a silver-sided freight train) on its way back to the hatchery. Visitors have dubbed this area an exceptional area. Bonnie Lure offers opportunities for walking, swimming, fishing, viewing wildlife, bird watching, and enjoying nature close to the city. The climate in this region changes with elevation. The area receives a high amount of precipitation. Much of the precipitation comes from October to April in the form of rain at the low elevations and as wet heavy snow in the higher elevations. Winter temperatures are normally cool at the lower elevations and cold at the higher elevations. Although snow is possible in the lowest elevations, it is infrequent and does not stay on the ground for long. Late spring, summer and early autumn bring the best chance for clear, sunny days and bring moderate temperatures. |
