 Skiing, snowboarding,
and snow tubing are fun
and exciting ways to enjoy Bear Creek in the
winter. These activities
are no more dangerous
than other high-energy
participation sports,
and less dangerous than
some common activities.
However, they are
challenging and require
physical skills that are
only learned over time
with practice. The
sports involve some
inherent risk, but in
some measure, it is the
thrill that entices most
skiers and riders to
pursue the sport. Bear
Creek is committed to
the safety of all our
guests, but remember,
safety starts with you.
