Links:Trip Journal - 8/16/07
Notes:Pear Lake lies just off of the Blue Canyon Trail, with no official spur trail. You have a couple of options; one is watch closely at the north end of Horseshoe Lake for a path to the right next to the lake. This is probably the old route of the Blue Canyon Trail and will lead you to the south in of Pear Lake. The other option is to wait and catch a glimpse of the lake's north end as you climb east. Here again is a faint path that will lead you down to the lake.
