A surprise cold snap whipped through Big Bear Lake this week allowing for unprecedented, early season snowmaking at Bear Mountain and Snow Summit.

Big Bear Mountain Resorts opened Bear Mountain today with Chair 5, Central Park Run and half a dozen terrain features accessible to snowboarders and skiers.

"This is our earliest opening ever in the modern era. With this rare shift in the weather, we opted to fire up the snowmaking guns a bit early to give our visitors a sneak peek at the great season ahead," said Chris Riddle, Director of Marketing for Big Bear Mountain Resorts.

Special early season rates will apply with discounted lift tickets available for only $25 for adults, $20 for young adults and $10 for children. Season pass holders are encouraged to get a head start on the season. Snowmaking has also begun at Snow Summit with an opening date to be announced soon.

To receive updates on the latest conditions and opening day information, text "SNOW" to 52406 or call 800-BEAR-MTN or 888-SUMMIT-1. To view updated videos, photos and terrain maps, log on to www.bearmountain.com or www.snowsummit.com.
