Snow Summit
Bear Mountain is thrilled to announce that Chair Nine will be opening tomorrow with newly added features. It’s been a busy day today for Bear’s on hill staff, who are busy preparing a run that you must come check out for yourself. The Lipstick, Frank the Tank and the Dog House are just a few of the features that will be shredable at Bear Mountain on December 1st, 2009. So get those boards and skis ready, Chair Nine will be ready in the AM to give you a taste of some serious winter fun.
The storm over the weekend dropped a total of 10-12 inches of snow at Bear Mountain and Snow Summit. Bear’s Chairs 1, 5, and 7 are open with 29 Jibs and 6 Snow Features. Chair 9 and Upper Park run are expected to open tomorrow with new Terrain Park Features! Snow Summit is opening up Chair 2 and 3 today accessing Upper Westridge, ZZYZX and Upper Summit Run. Our snowmakers are working around the clock and as snowmaking continues more lifts and runs will be available.

Last night Park Staff added three new terrain park features to Bear’s Lower Park Run making for a total of 34. Among these are a new flat box, a rainbow box, and two rollers in The Gulch. Chair 9 is also expected to open this coming Tuesday from Upper Park Run connecting to Expressway. “I can’t wait to get to work on Upper Park Run, this unexpected storm added to the start of a great season,” says Park Development Specialist Clayton Shoemaker. ”We’re stoked.” In addition to this exciting news, be on the look out this week for some of Bear and Thirty Two’s team riders testing their new skills for the 09-10 season.
