Ski Big Bear

Sitting along the Delaware river just a stone throw from ny state sits a small ski area within the community of Mast Hope. My kids and I skied it for the third time on Christmas Eve. All 18 trails were open ,thanks to a great snow making crew, no thanks to mother nature ,who has only given a trace so far. . There was no break at all in the cold weather so the groomers were really hard snow. Humidity places a roll in the snow making here because of the river and the  snow making can be a challenge. Today there were not any lift lines and lapping the 650 verts was fast. The kids stayed in the park ,which was set up nicely. I hit the 2 best black diamond trails ,shown in photos, which would be blues elsewhere , most of the day. One of the reasons we love  Big Bear is its only 14 miles from our home.

Gotta say I have never head of it.  Like seeing reports from the smaller mountains though.  Got any full shots of the hill?
