So Cal Snow Post: Let It Snow!

Snow is starting to fall in Southern California, and the sound of that is music to our ears. This week’s storm blanketed Snow Summits and Bear Mountain resorts with 14 feet of fresh powder and there’s more to come this weekend. Combine that with their quality snowmaking and slope grooming and you’ve got yourself an awesome place to ride.

More lifts and runs are opening daily at so-cal resorts with high hope of having most of the mountain open for this weekend.

Here is your weekly forecast of conditions for Big Bear Mountain Resorts:
