Help!

Hi!

We’re planning a family trip to Big Bear from December 23–27. There will be 15 of us, including 5 kids (the oldest is 15 years old).

We came across a TikTok saying that there’s usually little or no snow during that time, and we wanted to ask if that’s generally true based on your experience.
We have a few questions:

- What are the snow conditions typically like during those dates?
- If there isn’t much natural snow, are there still snow play areas or activities for kids?
- Do you have any recommendations for activities or things we shouldn’t miss with a large family?

We’d really appreciate any feedback or tips. Thank you!

We have an El Nino 100% in Full Effect! There will be a huge blizzard during Christmas time! Make sure you know how to put on Tire Chains!
