Groups
Big Bear Mountain Resorts offers group rates for Bear Mountain and Snow Summit.
Big Bear Mountain Resorts welcomes groups of 15 or more with discounted rates on area use/lift tickets, rentals, and lessons. In addition, for each block of 20 tickets purchased (per session), your group receives the 21st area use/lift ticket free! The free area use/lift ticket is valid only on the day of your visit. New for the 2009-2010, winter season Bear Mountain and Snow Summit Group Sales is offering a Young Adult Lesson Package!
Prices are negotiated based on the time of season, size of your group, date of your outing, and other services utilized. The best savings and incentives are offered Sunday through Friday, non-holiday and/or night session. Half-day group rates are also available for groups.
Bear Mountain offers a freestyle terrain park, the highest peak and the largest beginner area in Southern California. Snow Summit provides a great deal of intermediate terrain and mainstream cruising for skiers and snowboarders with both day and scheduled night sessions available. Your group will have the opportunity to visit both resorts on the same day if you choose, with one interchangeable area use/lift ticket! With both resorts having so much to offer, everyone in your group is sure to find just what they’re looking for. Get your friends, coworkers, classmates or church members together for a fun day on the slopes!
