Big Bear Lake: A Good Time for Easter Weekend
Discover Big Bear Lake • February 29, 2024
This Easter, ditch the ordinary and hop on over to Big Bear Lake for an unforgettable egg-stravaganza unlike any other!
As of today, the mountains are practically bursting with snow, with all three resorts - Bear Mountain, Snow Summit, and Snow Valley - reporting over 100 inches of the snow this season! Snow Summit even takes the cake (or should we say, carrot?) with a whopping 133 inches! And guess what? The forecast predicts even more snow as March approaches. ❄️
Here's the egg-cellent news: this snowfall bonanza means there's a high chance the slopes will be open on Easter weekend! So, picture this: shredding down the slopes in sunshine, feeling the warm California breeze in your hair, and enjoying stunning lake views - all while rocking your Easter best (or maybe just a t-shirt!). Talk about an epic Easter memory in the making!
But wait, there's more! Big Bear Lake isn't just about shredding and sunshine. Get ready for some egg-citing Easter egg hunts, festive family fun, and delicious Easter feasts that will leave you hopping for joy. So, pack your bags, grab your board (or basket!), and get ready for an Easter adventure you won't forget!

Spring Weather in Big Bear Lake
Spring paints Big Bear Lake in vibrant hues, with average temperatures in the low 50s (around 11°C) during Easter weekend. While the California sunshine chases away the winter chill, creating comfortable days perfect for t-shirts and light jackets, it's important to remember that Big Bear Lake sits at a high elevation. This means higher areas, particularly the ski resorts, may still hold onto some winter magic in the form of snow. As we mentioned above, the ski resorts have a high probability of still being open. But don't hold out for hope that Big Bear Lake will be a winter wonderland. You probably won't be able to build a snowman from you cabin but do expect that patches of snow may remain, especially on north-facing slopes and shaded areas, especially on hiking trails. This lingering snow adds to the unique charm of an Easter weekend in Big Bear Lake, offering the possibility of enjoying both spring sunshine and winter activities in the same day
