Description

Snow Summit Mountain Resort is sister mountain of nearby Bear Mountain, but has its own appeal to SoCal skiers and riders. The resorts are about two miles apart and are connected via a free inter-mountain express shuttle service. Snow Summit sits at 7,000 feet and is a full service winter resort with all types of lodging accommodations available nearby, shops, full service restaurants, and after-ski entertainment. When there are fresh tracks to be had, The Wall, Dicky’s, and Olympic runs serve up challenging, steep terrain for advanced skiers and riders, while Miracle Mile and Log Chute are ideal intermediate cruisers. Snow Summit also has several freestyle parks including Ego Trip, the Skyline Creek Fun Zone and the popular Westridge. Here's a bit of history: Snow Summit was very possibly the first ski area in America to make its own snow.ActivitiesSnowboarding: Terrain parks offer excellent beginner and freestyle terrain during the day but are also open for night skiing and riding on most Fridays, Saturdays and holiday periods beginning at 3 p.m.LodgingCondos, cabins, private homes, and hotels are within walking distace or a short drive from the resort.Winter RecreationSnowboarding, demo and test centers.

Customer Service - ZREO Food - ZERO Value for Money Spent - ZERO Friendly Staff Members - ZERO Parking - HORRIBLE Bear Mountain is owned by the same company so I suspect its not much different. Locals in Big Bear have a bad attitude toward anybody who is from out of town. I think they hate their lives. Save your money.

Best 1st Day of the New Year
By ,
What could be better then a ski trip New Years Day. Snow was awsome, no lines, wide open trails all day. More snow dumped Sunday night so conditions should be better then ever.

A great time, whatever the weather!
By ,
I live at the base of Summit and we walk to the lifts. We got some spectacular snow EARLY this year...and Summit made snow the whole time. As a newbie to snow sports and to the area, I was scratching my head. "Why waste all that money blowing snow when they've got great weather?" Now I know...last week had highs in the high 50s and 60s and Summit is weathering it fairly well...starting to get patchy on a few of the runs, but they made enough snow to keep the snow cats pushing to the patches. Plus they have been just fantastic with my kids, all of which are beginners. The staff are laid back, but not lazy, and always friendly. Man I hope we get some snow this weekend. Great job Snow Summit...this new skier and local gives you a big two thumbs up.

Best in So Cal
By ,
Summit consistently has the best snow quality and skiing in Southern California. We had a great experience there over Christmas - great snow coverage, all the runs open, and beautiful weather. The layout of the resort makes it easy to get around the mountain from both of the high speed lifts. The lift lines on several of the chairs (5, 6, 7 particularly) are short and rarely require any wait. Our family has come back again and again for years. I highly recommend it!
