Big Bear Lake - At Big Bear Mountain Resorts, conditions are way better than you may expect with more terrain open than you realize! Two of the world's largest snowmaking systems plus a nearly inexhaustible supply of water from Big Bear Lake have allowed our snowmaking crews to make a tremendous amount of snow. Forecasts are calling for cold dry Santa Ana conditions over the next few days enabling the resorts to continue to make snow around-the-clock! Coverage is excellent on all open runs with a machine groomed packed powder surface. One lift ticket gives you access to more open terrain and more lifts operating than any other Southern California resort.
