Too Much Snow? Really? Bear Valley To Use Monday Catch Up On Over 6.5 Feet Of New Snow!

Bear Valley, CA…Ironic, but, yes, that is the situation. After over 6.5 feet of snow in the last 4 days and the expectation for another 18 inches overnight we plan to close operations on MONDAY JAN 23rd to recover our infrastructure. The massive amount of snow combined with high winds and road closures forced many California resorts to shut down on Sunday. We are thankful to our operation teams for making a heroic effort to get open today and provide a full weekend of skiing/riding on the fresh powder that so many of our guests love. However the storm cycle continues and strengthens overnight and into tomorrow morning.


Our teams will arrive tomorrow and embark on massive snow removal and snow management efforts across the mountain and day lodge. We are 100% focused on the safety of our guests and our staff. Our goal is to provide the most quality product for all that can join us for an epic reopening on TUESDAY JAN 24th – it could likely be one of the best days of the season.

Be Safe on the roads – Forecast is calling for snow levels to drop to 2500 feet and that said challenging road conditions are expected again tomorrow.

The good news is that following this last storm pulse, conditions in the Sierra will be amazing for the weeks ahead. Thanks for your continued support of our team, we look forward to seeing you TUESDAY JANUARY 24th.
