Snowmaking was on at Bear Mountain last night treating Park Run to a fresh layer of snow. The nights have been cold and dry and that helps maintain our surface giving you the best riding conditions in SoCal. Snowmakers pumped out about 5,500 GPM and if you know anything about the science behind making quality snow you'll know that's gooood stuff. Learn more HERE.

| Park Tips |
| SMART STYLE:1.) Look Before You Leap – Scope around the jumps first, not over them. Know your landings are clear and clear yourself out of the landing area. 2.) Easy Style It – Start small and work your way up. Inverted aerials are not allowed at BBMR. 3.) Respect Gets Respect - From the lift line through the park. |
