Big Bear Mountain – Expected Closing Dates 2025

Bear Mountain’s deep snowpack is keeping skies and slopes active well into spring, boosting confidence in a lengthened season. Current projections indicate Bear Mountain will likely remain open through Sunday, April 20, 2025, weather permitting. Guests are encouraged to stay tuned with weekly updates as conditions evolve.

Local reports confirm Snow Valley is set to close on Sunday, April 6, while Snow Summit is expected to ski and ride until Sunday, April 13.

Plan Your Final Runs of the Season

Skiers and snowboarders looking to enjoy the last runs should plan trips in March and April to make the most of spring skiing and riding. These months often include events, park features, and great mountain conditions for a fun send-off to winter.

Why These Dates Matter

  • Bear Mountain’s extended season offers rare late-April riding opportunities.
  • Snow Summit and Snow Valley present great spring skiing windows just as seasonal festivities peak.
  • Booking early ensures cabin availability during these high-demand periods.
