Fun as always. Went on Feb.14, after weeks of no snow it snowed on the way up and until about 1 p.m., about 2-3" of fresh powder on top of what was icy the week b4. Had a great day, a little cold and windy, but for people like us who don't wimp out in cold weather it was awesome. Backside was sweet. This weeks storms should make it awesome for next week.

A return to an 'old friend'. Bear is a good intermediate mtn. Went on superbowl sunday and got in LOTS of runs!

Back side was great fun. Long runs and high speed quad. Several different runs to go down. Be careful using the traverse back to the front side. If your ridding and don't have the speed you'll be walking or skating for a while.

Skiing at Bear Valley was great. We go there all the time. It's a great mountain, lot's of great runs without the Tahoe crowd. We went on a perfect day, 3-4" of fresh powder overnight, sunny and low 30's with a monday crowd of no one. Never waited more than one chair to get on lift.
I went in to office to get lift ticket, showed my ID, they had it waiting with a post it with my name on it. Great service you guys, saved me $23.00, so my son and I had tickets for the normal price of mine. I will be buying tix through you from now on.

LOVED Bear Valley! there was absolutely no lines on lifts on a Friday.

Great runs for everyone at all levels. The most advanced runs are short, but challenging. No crowds! Of course, no crowds means lots of skiing and sore muscles the next day or two - Love it!

We go to Bear every year. Stay in Arnold and spend some time in Murphey's when we aren't at Bear.

MY SECOND HOME...YOU CAN RIDE EVERYWHERE AND FIND THE LEVEL YOU NEED TO BE AT...AND NEVER THE CROWDS LIKE EVERYWHERE ELSE.

Great place for a weekend. Lovely runs with no crowds. Really nice friendly vibe unlike a lot of the major Tahoe resorts. I'll definitely be returning to BV.

You can hit most of the mountain in a weekend. Backside, front side and lower bowl. I spend most of the day on Grizz when there's enough of a base.
