Crowded lifts, lots of people and snow can be slushy. Can be ok if you must ski in so cal. Avoid fresh snow days as it will be packed wall to wall. Better to just drive a bit further so you can enjoy your day more. Other than the the resort is nice but needs to update older lifts. Addition of 1-2 more all mountain lifts would help to eliminate issues with lines. Needs better snow making capabilities to take advantage of snow making days.

This is a solid resort. Me and my friends have been coming here for 5 years or so and every season we get the ikon pass which up front seems expensive but if you come every weekend, it’s well worth the money. They even have a cheaper season pass for big bear resorts which include access to snow summit and bear mountain. My only gripe with this place is it’s a family resort so there’s a lot of beginners on some of the even more advanced runs causing chaos and just chilling in the middle of runs. Bear mountain would be ideal to go if your looking to hit more park features like rails/boxes/jumps and be surrounded by more advanced riders. This place is better to bring your kids and family. Also note that the main lot gets full quick, if your okay with waiting for and riding the meat wagon, this shouldn’t be an issue for you. I can understand that some people bring their family’s here and want the convenience of having access to their car mid day so for that to be possible, get here early.

I love skiing & this is my local ski resort so I really want to give it a higher rating but the experience has some challenges. Parking & traffic control is almost always a mess. It’s gotten worse the last few seasons. Most people have to park off site & shuttle in. We buy the premium parking pass, but it’s still a challenge most days. The lines can be really long in the base area at tickets & rentals. We buy passes which helps, but it can be a maze to get through to the snow. When there is good snow & good grooming, the lift lines are usually pretty short although chairs 1 & 2 can be long. I recommend lessons for beginners, otherwise there aren’t a lot of runs for those without basic skills.

I really enjoyed skiing here during the holidays, great fresh snow. Very professional instructors and very helpful staffs. Only one thing I would like to point out is the ski trail map seems misleading. The “Summit Run” is green which currently means “easier” as the legend says but I feel it is definitely more difficult than those blue legend (more difficult) trails the lift 10 leads. I consider myself below intermediate (level 4) and can casually ski the trails under lift 10 confidently and easily but I feel the “summit run” especially the two slopes that near the bottom is challenging for me. I saw at least 4 people towed away on sled by the staff(very professional btw) during my runs on it. Beginners should be really careful skiing or snowboarding on the trail in my opinion but it’s definitely a huge skill leap if one can conquer the fear and challenges with safety in mind. Anyway skiing is really enjoyable even addictive for some people I think, but I really feel people should take lessons at least the first time. It’s really dangerous just renting the equipment and jumping onto the lift to ski all the way down. The instructors are very professional and the lessons learned are for lifetime.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Ok. I hope this helps. This is my first season up here working with Big Bear Mountain/snowsummit. When I seen how short staffed it was going to be I had no idea the toll it would take on the whole experience for visitors and as a worker. . Its not easy on either of our staff or guest but we're trying here. My apologies for the bad experience. I wish I could help. And hopefully your next visit will be a better one.

I am going the 21rst of February, what is the best and cheapest way to get first time skii lessons for two children (8yrs) and one adult?

Adolfo Gestalt Psicoterapeuta | Sep 6, 2020
Reggie Quintana | Sep 6, 2020

Get the Children's Learning Center (CLC) with rentals. Comes with skis, boots, poles, & helmet (make sure they include the helmet). I think it's $115 each child. Class times are 10am, 12pm, & 2pm weekdays. 930am, & 1pm weekends. I think the class is called "Adventurers". The day that they have the lessons they are only allowed to go 1/2 way up the mountain (lifts 13, 14, & 6) because they are beginners. For the adult get the Adult Learning Center (A.L.C.) with rentals. If you think your able to ski from the top of the mountain you can go back to the ticket line and purchase a lift upgrade that will allow you to go to the top (but not the children). Then the next time: you go skiing they can go all the way up if they are able. Go online & purchase the "4pack" anytime tickets for $99 & hey your rentals somewhere else and save about $10-$15 each person.

Ignore the slackjaw inbreds giving terrible answers and bad reviews to everyone. A full day ticket during the snow season can range from $120 +/- surge pricing for holiday weekends etc... The best deal is to go on a half day when they let you stay past sunset. Only about $75 then and like having two snow adventures. Get on thier social media chains for special deals, which sometimes include very affordable gear rentals and other special packages. My prediction based on weather says lifts will be running 1&2 plankers to most trails by thanksgiving.
