antman12 Posted March 4, 2018 Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 Afternoon all, I just got back from my first day at bear in over 3 years. Woke up STILL without power. Took an ice cold shower due to no power and did a little foam rolling as today was my first back to back riding days in a few years. Pulled into the parking lot around 8am and was instantly taken aback by the lack of snow. I haven't checked but I would have to guess it rained here on Friday rather than snowed. They were selling all day tickets for only $25 so credit to them. Quite a few trails were closed including both Sasquatch and Extreme which are my favorite none park trails at Bear. The park set up was a nice change compared to riding the same park at Blue. They have a couple fun rails/setups that I really enjoyed but I only took 4 runs thru the park. I then went over to the back side and rode both timberline and grizzly twice each. By this time I was pretty bored and had about an hour to kill before my sister and nephew arrived so I went and grabbed a vanilla latte at the cafe thats located up in the hotel/spa part of the resort. Sat on one of the decks for awhile until my sister and nephew arrived.My sister then proceeded to zip tie her glove to her pants/ticket...fool. We took about 8 runs mainly down a couple of their beginner trails for awhile. I was happily surprised by my nephews progression since I last rode with him about a month ago. Hes able to link his carves together now and its finally starting to "click" for him! We grabbed some lunch and did a couple more runs before calling it a day. I definitely dont see Bear making it much longer but it was good to get back there again. The drive up, lodge and some of the trails brought back A LOT of memories from my close to 10 years holding a pass. Thanks for reading! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was pretty sad. I could have taken/shared a bunch of pictures of trails with huge potholes, completely bare areas and most of the trails were just white ribbons.
