Local ski resorts are looking for up to a foot and half of new snow from today’s storm. So the next couple days could be amazing.
The Big Bear resorts had an amazing
start to the season and this will just push them to the next level.
Bear Mountain says its feature count right now is at 50 jibs, 37 snow features, and a
standard halfpipe. These are set all over the resort. They have them on Amusement Park, Learning Curve, Easy
Street, Hidden Valley, Central Park, and all over Chair 9/Park Run.
Mountain High is open until 10 pm with night skiing tonight from 5 to 10 pm. The Wrightwood resort reports it is bursting at the seams with new features.
Last night, they completely
rebuilt Lower Chisolm and the Playground adding 12 new jibs including
the Spool and a 8 foot Wallride in the Playground, and the Kinked Box,
the Down Flat Down Box, the Down Flat Down rail and more to Lower
Chisolm.
Creekside and Sunnyside are packed with beginner features as
well so check out all that is new at Mountain High.

Mountain High ski resort in Wrightwood reports that it has been able to pump out more than 36 hours of snowmaking and is still going.
There’s several inches of new snow on all open runs and open until 10pm, so you’ve got all day to come get some awesome machine made packed powder!
Please dress warm as the winds and continued snowmaking will make conditions a lot cooler than normal.

Beginner park riders check out our new Progression Park on Sunnyside with two jumps, a 20ft flat box, the Dance Pad, another flat box, a bazooka tube, and a 10ft flat bar.
