Bear Creek Mountain Resort
      Overview Resort Statistics Lift Statistics Trail Statistics Other Services Contact Info Directions

If skiing is your winter thing then Bear Creek is the place to be. Bear Creek has increased it's snowmaking and lighting this year to cover 100% of the mountain. If you enjoy long runs, Timberline Trail will be open this year. With new snowmaking and lighting on this trail, Bear Creek doesn't have to wait for "Mother Nature" to do her thing. If you're into more extreme fun, try the super-sized half-pipe and awesome terrain park.
