Big Bear Lake, Southern California
Two Mountains, two destinies. Terrain, and Big Air! Bear Mountain is the SoCal mecca for snowboarders, a full-scale board park with a half-pipe, rails, and jumps enough to scare you. Dig in to the competition and carve your initials all over the mountain! Snow Summit, just a few minutes from Bear Mountain, offers a large variety of runs from skiing beginners to hard core veterans. They offer schools and private training for the newcomers too.
You can also go night-skiing at Summit, conditions permitting. That gives you the opportunity to save some money and some daylight, if you need it for other things.
