This is a smaller size than average ski

    mountain featuring a roughly average vertical drop when compared to other mid Atlantic ski areas. The 18 ski runs at this ski resort are enjoyable to ski on. There are a number of tremendous hotel rooms near the bottom area, but you'd better book prior to departure
as these hotel rooms fill up quick. You get a lot of skiers traveling up here from East Stroudsburg on snow covered weekends. Ski Big Bear has an average percentage of hard runs and an average share of beginner and intermediate ski trails. The 5 lifts here make for a relaxing ride up the hill. The yearly snowfall is lighter than average at Ski Big Bear. Glorious exercise and a chance to spend some time in the fresh air will have you coming back for more. You might be into skiing or snowboarding, or both, doesn't matter,
