High Mountain Economy Rolls On ~By John Hamilton
Bear Valley, CA...The economy in our high country was sliding, skiing, snowboarding & snowmobiling in high gear last weekend. Bear Valley Mountain had their busiest single day in the last several years with close to 5,000 skiers and riders on Sunday alone. The combination of great weather, events like the Night Wings Slopestyle event on Saturday night and a long three day weekend made an irresistible allure for those willing to explore our great outdoors...

Every nook and cranny of available parking was filled to overflowing with people playing outside.
It has been great this year especially in challenging economic times for our local winter. For locals this might be illustrative as to the kind of day Bear Valley Mountain had on Sunday in addition to great days the rest of the weekend. All of the lots were filled and cars were parked all the way to the top of the hill and starting to go back down Hwy 207.
The hill absorbed it well as it usually does on clear sunny days. With the full mountain open and great snow coverage Bear Valley can really absorb the skiers
