Bald Mountain Recreation Area, Recreation area in Oakland County, Michigan.
The 4,637-acre recreation area contains seventeen lakes, two trout streams, and fifteen miles of marked trails through forests and open fields.
The land transformed from a former ski club location into a recreational space, maintaining the natural features of southeastern Michigan's glacial terrain.
