Notes:
Big Bear ranges in elevation from 6,000 - 8,000 feet expect the possibility of snow patches and cold weather. The event will happen regardless of weather, watch weather reports and pack accordingly. This is good for us though, most of us have full body Cherokees with heaters and the trails are much more empty then!

Weather Forecast:
Will be updated closer to event.
