Bear Mountain’s Chair 5 Opens Friday with Continued Snowmaking Underway
(Big Bear Lake, CA – October 29, 2009) – A surprise cold snap has whipped through Big Bear Lake this week allowing for unprecedented, early season snowmaking at Bear Mountain and Snow Summit. Big Bear Mountain Resorts has announced that Bear Mountain will open on Friday, October 30th with Chair 5, Central Park Run and half a dozen terrain features accessible to snowboarders and skiers anxious to get a taste of the 2009/2010 Season.
“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. “In sunny Southern California, we rely on our unmatched snowmaking systems to provide quality snow for hundreds of thousands of skiers and snowboarders each season.”
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.
