Bear Valley, CA...Hey Good People! A beautiful bluebird day is ahead with cool temps and some more awesome pow riding! After a storm recovery day on Tuesday we reopened yesterday with copious amounts of deep pow riding on the frontside. Today we look to bring the backside and lower mtn online. The backside is slated to open by 10am and the lower mtn by 11am but it’s possible it could be sooner. With 85” over the last 5 days Ski Patrol has been working diligently to bring things online in the Grizz. Today will be that day! Please give a shout out to all Mtn. Ops Teams you see today as everyone has been doing an incredible job during this storm cycle! Ride with a partner as the tree wells all over the resort are deep from the recent snowfall so it’s a good idea to ride with a friend.
