Bear Mountain Overview

Bear Mountain

Ninety miles due east of Los Angeles in the San Bernardino National Forest, Bear Mountain serves as a haven for a rabid cadre of snowboarders and freeskiers who play in the area's three terrain parks and pipes along with a double black run sure to get the most adventurous freeskier's blood rushing. The prevailing vibe is so boarder-centric that the area also fields its own pro snowboard team.
