Things to do

Snow Summit _ seeing the forest for the trees

One of the area's main attractions is San Bernardino National Forest, which features more than 150,000 acres of preserved wilderness in the San Bernardino and San Jacinto mountain ranges. It's home to a 30-mile section of the Pacific Crest Trail, and you can spot several species of wildlife, depending on the season. If you'd rather put your money on a sure thing, check out the Big Bear Alpine Zoo at Moonridge. At this wildlife rehabilitation center, you can see everything from badgers and arctic foxes, to grizzly bears and snow leopards.

Activities

Snow Summit _ it's all downhill from here

First things first: ski, ski, and _ oh yeah _ ski. Snow Summit is famous for its slopes, and with good reason. It's got runs for skiers and snowboarders of all levels, including a number of Black Diamond_rated slopes for the most advanced winter thrillseekers. But there's just as much to do in August as in January. The surrounding mountains are full of scenic hiking and camping spots, and Big Bear Lake is a major destination for boating and fishing. Snow Summit itself has numerous mountain biking trails, and the resort's 14 lifts are converted for cycling use during the summer.

Weather

Snow Summit _ winter is coming

Snow Summit has a warm-summer Mediterranean climate, which means dry, temperate summers and cold-to-mild winters with regular snowfall throughout the season. Summers are warm, with average highs in the upper 70s and low 80s in June, July, and August. Winters are relatively mild, with an average high of 47_F from December through February. Since the resort makes its own snow, you won't be reliant on seasonal snowfall to get your skis on. Since most people come for the epic slopes, prices on Snow Summit vacation rentals tend to be at their lowest during the warmer summer months.

Natural features

Take a peak at Snow Summit
