The Bowling Barn, Big Bear Fun Plex, Snow Summit and Bear Mountain will all be open both days, with night sessions being offered at the slopes.  The Moonridge Animal Park, and the Big Bear Discovery Center are both open on Christmas Eve, and closed on Christmas, so you can say hi to the animals, and find out more about Big Bear’s History.  Additional activities you can do on your own time include snowshoeing, and taking a stroll down the Alpine Pedal Path on the North Shore of Big Bear Lake.  There are many local trails, including the Woodland Trail, Cougar Crest Trail, and Pine Knot trail that are great snowshoeing trails.  ACTIVITIES: – Alpine Slide: Christmas Eve = 10-5 pm, weather permitting; Christmas day = 11-4 pm. – Big Bear Snow Play: Christmas Eve = 10-4 pm; Christmas day = 11-4 pm. – Bowling Barn: Christmas Eve = 10-5 pm; Christmas Day = Noon-10 pm....
