Aspen Glen Snow Play Area
Big Bear Lake, CA
Adventure Pass ($5/day or $30/year)
By Simir Shah
A Forest Service spot on Mill Creek Rd, just west of the Village, where the area around Aspen Glen Picnic Area becomes a sledding and snowman zone after storms. Park legally (not in the travel lanes), stay off private property, and pack out broken sleds; when snow is present a recreation pass is required on Mill Creek Rd and Tulip Lane. Parking is limited and there are no restrooms.
