Snow Report

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2012

If you haven’t had a chance to make it up to Big Bear yet, now’s the time to come ski and ride! The snow coverage is excellent with full-width runs and a solid snow base. With nearly every single run open and the toned down midweek crowds, you practically have the mountain to yourself especially if you like the upper runs like The Bowl, TimberRidge, Log chute and Perfect Pitches. Enjoy clear blue skies today with temps in the mid 50′s.


We Love Westridge!

Tuesday, February 21st, 2012

There’s some serious history behind Westridge; Many would even say Westridge innovated park riding and paved the way for park builders around the world, but history is for school, let’s get in the now! And now, Westridge is the place to be. With nearly 100 features and freestyle terrain for all levels of riding, Westridge is one of So Cal’s best kept secrets. A lot of people preach Bear for park riding, as they should, it’s one of the best in the world, but Summit is Bear’s sister and the good genes run in the family. SPT park survey.The two are one, just like all of us. We’re all one in the sense that we love to ski and snowboard. We love it so much we read these silly blogs every morning just to get a taste of the life when we are not here. So if you are sitting at your desk dreaming of your next visit to Snow Summit, add a little Westridge to that daze; some big airs, smooth grinds, and stylin’ style! Remember, the most successful snowboarder in the world came from right here in your back yard… Yep, Mr. Shaun White, and the best snowboarder on the mountain is the one having the most fun.

After you check it out, let us know what you think by taking this SPT park survey.

Presidents’ Day on the Snow

Monday, February 20th, 2012

Celebrate President’s Day in Big Bear where we have excellent midwinter conditions. It’s been a great long weekend and it’s not over yet. There’s plenty of snow, nearly 100% of both resorts are open with plenty of terrain park features between Snow Summit and Bear Mountain. Chair lifts are open today at Snow Summit until 5pm so you can be sure to get all of your favorite runs in.

Insider’s Tip: Chairs 7 and 10 for intermediate to advanced riders have the least amount of wait time, chairs 2 & 3 are best for park riders, and chair 9 is perfect for families and advanced beginner and intermediate skiers and snowboarders.

Come spend the long weekend in our Winter Wonderland for less than a tank of a gas away round trip. We are nearly 100% open with full-width runs and plenty of terrain features for everyone. If you haven’t made it up to Big Bear yet this season, now’s the time!

Things are looking excellent this weekend at Snow Summit with mostly sunny skies. We received new snow last week and we’ve been making snow at every opportunity.
