map_caption=The Bear River Mountains are a branch of the Wasatch Range located in northeastern Utah and southeastern Idaho. It is a popular area for both winter and summer activities, especially camping, hiking, rock-climbing, snowmobiling, and skiing. Popular areas include the Beaver Mountain ski resort, the Tony Grove camping area, and numerous caves. The Sinks are popular for snowmobiling.
