You can once again ski in Southern California.
Snow Summit in Big Bear Lake opened on Friday with two lifts in operation. Sure, Mother Nature hasn’t dropped any of natural snow in the San Bernardino Mountains, but crews have been hard at work making snow themselves.
The resort reports a base of 16″ on the open trails.
