Safety Responsibility Code #5

Observe Signs and Warnings, and Keep Off Closed Trails

Bear Valley is full of great terrain. While most of it is a lot of fun to ski and snowboard, some areas are very dangerous. The signs and boundaries you’ll find all over the mountain are there to help you steer clear of those treacherous areas and the cliffs, rivers, avalanches, and other hazards found in them. Most closed areas aren’t served by lifts, so if you duck a ribbon, it’ll be a long hike back out. And if that isn’t enough, it’s actually against the law here to ignore boundaries and closures. So be safe and fight crime - Observe the signs!
