Bear Valley, CA...Hey Good People! Let’s talk weather…… We will be closed for all Mtn Operations on Monday 8th and Tuesday 9th of January. We will reopen Wednesday January 10th. A mix of sunshine and clouds will be on tap for Bear Valley today as the high will be around 45F with ESE winds from 8-10mph. As the weather system heads East another is slated to arrive later this evening as the system gains strength. Initially the snow levels will be around 8000′ or so and drop quickly early Tuesday morning to the 6000′ level. 6-12″ is expected at the 8000′ level so keep your fingers crossed for temps to come in colder and a bit earlier as that could push the elevation for snowfall down to 5K possibly. It’s a great time to take a lesson or just bring the Family up for some tubing fun. We’re about “Pure Mtn Fun” so come check us out this Winter !!!!! stay tuned………………………….
