We Have What You Want

Don’t let snow reports from other SoCal mountains bum you out. Bear Mountain and Snow Summit have more terrain, more lifts, and more jibs than the other SoCal Mountains. It’s higher, colder, we have better coverage and a great snow surface. Now’s the time to ride Bear and check out the Red Bull Plaza while you’re here. Let us know what you think about The People’s Park HERE.

Alrighty friends! We’re set up for a fun day on the mountain. Our resorts are groomed to perfection. Between Snow Summit and Bear Mountain you get nearly 438 rideable acres, over 55 full-width runs, jib pipe, QP, halfpipe and SoCal’s only Superpipe, Red Bull Plaza, some fun steeps, and all the sun deck pleasure you can ask for; all of this for just one lift ticket. Today looks like another incredible day with the high reaching 63 degrees, enjoy.

Tuesday’s Outlook

Pat — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 18:50:09 +0000

We got some new snow yesterday! It wasn’t what we were hoping for, but the storm left us 1-3 inches of new snow, which is enough to freshen up our surface. We’re back to sunny skies again today with a high of 43. The wind might pick up a little bit today, so be sure to cover up that pretty face of yours. Can’t mess up that money maker ; ).

For those of you who are not familiar with our Facebook and Twitter accounts, check them out!

New Snow Today!

Pat — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 17:30:49 +0000

It’s snowing! We knew it would come around- it is winter after all. Today’s forecast is calling for several inches of white stuff. As you know, Bear Mountain has had great riding this season with a deep snow base, all lifts available and nearly every run open. The natural snow will freshen the surface and make for great skiing and riding. If you aren’t here today we’ll be expecting you tomorrow for sunny skies and freshies!

Weekend Forecast

Pat — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 16:50:55 +0000

We’ve been experiencing a mixture of snow and rain today, with some flurries at the higher elevations. Today’s fast moving storm is forecast to move out this evening leaving us with a sunny day on the mountain tomorrow, and Monday is showing a chance for some snow. We’ve had a great year so far and we have a feeling the second half is going to be even better! Night Session is currently scheduled for Snow Summit tonight- weather and conditions permitting. Peak weekend lift ticket rates are in effect today and Sunday.

Park Haps

Pat — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 13:16:53 +0000

Hey all you park rats! Yes you! How’s the park been? Hope you like it. We’ve been hooking up features for all ability levels and all styles of riding; We have Powder Bowl for anyone looking to get weird with it. We have the Red Bull Plaza for anyone looking to get off the main run, hang out, and session some street like jibs. We have Park Run for anyone looking to go fast and hit as many features as possible. We have Chair 5 for anyone looking to get out of the mix and just ride some jumps. We have The Scene for those afternoon hike sessions by the bar. And last but not least, we have the Skill Builder Park designed for riders who are new to park riding but want to learn the trade.

It’s all fun and it’s all for you. Let us know what you think by taking our SPT Park Survey. Your opinion matters!

Today’s forecast is sunny and clear with a high of 46. We had a great night of snowmaking last night. Enjoy the shred!

Volcom PB and J Results

Pat — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 02:10:55 +0000

We just got done with the Volcom PB and J and let’s count it as another successful contest. Kids came from all over to kill the set-up and make their mark. The little guys definitely made their presence. A few of them were barely waste tall but that didn’t stop them from charging features three times their size. That was fun to watch. The big guys killed it too. With dudes like Alex Heresford, Erik Leon, Jordan Smalls, Lenny Mazotti, and Devin Allen, the riders really had to work to get noticed. End of the day, they all made it happen and made us stoked to host this contest. You guys and gals are Bear Mountain.
