This camera looks at Bear Mountain and Bear Peak above Big Bear Lake, a mountain town in the San Bernardino Mountains of Southern California. It is useful for checking how the peaks look before a drive up or whether snow is visible on the high ground.

About the place

Big Bear Lake sits at roughly 2,000 metres in the San Bernardino Mountains, a short drive from the Los Angeles basin. The town grew up around its large reservoir, which is one of the best-known lakes in the region. The surrounding peaks rise steeply above the lake, and the forested slopes give the area a very different feel from the desert and city below. It is a popular base for hiking, boating and winter sports.

What the camera shows

The title names Bear Mountain and Bear Peak, so the view is expected to be centred on these summits rather than on the town itself. Depending on the view, you may be able to judge cloud cover, haze and snow on the upper slopes. The light is often most interesting in the early morning and late afternoon, when the ridgelines take on warm colour. Conditions change quickly in the mountains, so a fresh look at the live stream tells you more than a forecast alone.

Planning a visit

Winters are cold and snowy, and the mountain roads can require chains, while summers are mild and dry with pleasant days for lake activities. Spring and early autumn are often quieter and easier for hiking. Nearby cameras at the Snow Summit ski area and on Goldmine Mountain show other slopes around the town, which can help you compare conditions before you set off.
