Is it spring or is it winter? We can't tell! Yesterday's snowfall was the single biggest storm of the season bringing seven to nine inches of light powdery snow to add to our 12 to 36 inch snowbase and today will be another perfect blue bird day with powder and machine groomed packed powder conditions. Snow Summit and Bear Mountain still have plenty of runs and trails open with smooth corduroy and there are still some freshies out there! Big Bear Mountain Resorts has enough coverage to last into April and we expect to be open at least through Easter. We'll be riding out the week with sunny skies and mild temperatures so don't miss out on phenominal mid- winter conditions this spring!
