Four iconic Southern California ski resorts all are under the same umbrella after Mammoth Mountain Ski Area announced that it has entered into an agreement to acquire Big Bear Mountain Resorts in Big Bear Lake, California.
Big Bear Mountain Resorts includes both Bear Mountain and Snow Summit, the largest and most popular of Southern California’s ski and snowboard resorts that host nearly 800,000 winter visits annually. Mammoth Mountain also owns June Mountain.
The acquisition creates diverse and unique offerings of both summer and winter experiences for day trips, weekend getaways and extended vacations. Bear Mountain and Snow Summit, located a short drive from everywhere in Southern California, with their full complement of outdoor activities from action sports to first-time family experiences, provide an excellent fit with the world class, big-mountain destination experience offered at Mammoth.
“We couldn’t be more excited to enter into this agreement with Big Bear Mountain Resorts. These two uniquely Southern California resorts have been providing great skiing, riding and biking experiences to visitors from California and beyond,” said Rusty Gregory, Chairman and CEO of Mammoth Mountain. “Millions have enjoyed their first mountain resort experience on the slopes of Bear Mountain and Snow Summit, and we look forward to expanding upon the legacy that Dick Kun and his people have created over the past six decades.”
In the coming months Mammoth Mountain says it will be announcing new development and expansion plans for each of our four resorts designed to attract visitors from down the street, across the country, and around the world.
To celebrate the occasion, Mammoth Mountain has announced a new season pass that includes unrestricted access to all four mountains at the discounted rate of $689 for adults. The new Cali4nia Pass will go on sale at the Hot Dawgz and Hand Rails event at Bear Mountain this Saturday, September 27 and will then be available online for a limited time only at www.snowsummit.com or www.Cali4niaPass.com.
“The Cali4nia Pass will cut through the clutter in the market by providing the most diverse set of resort options available in California by allowing you to ski where you want, when you want and as often as you want,” Gregory said.
