Winter Sports
Winter not only provides a spectacular snow-covered landscape, but offers a large variety of recreation opportunities. Cross-country skiing, snow camping, hiking, snowmobiling and snow play are some popular uses of the Forest when it is blanketed with snow. Downhill skiing is available at all of the following commercial ski areas: Mt. Baldy, Mountain High, Ski Sunrise, Snowcrest Snowpark and Mt. Waterman.

Skiing/Snowboarding
Whether you are looking for well-groomed beginner or intermediate runs or the steep and deep of a double-black diamond run our national forests offer ski areas that provide a skiing or snowboarding experience that is just right for you. These ski areas range from world-class resorts hosting World Cup races to local ski areas that are great for family-style skiing.
The Angeles National Forest hosts 3 ski/snowboarding/ tubing areas in the forest. Visit www.mthigh.com and www.mtbaldyresort.com for more info!
Stay tuned to learn more about the status of Mt. Waterman Resort this season by visiting its website at Mt. Waterman Ski Lifts (mtwaterman.org).
Make sure you check the Caltrans QuickMap (https://quickmap.dot.ca.gov) before leaving the house to find out if 4X4 vehicles and chains are required!
We look forward to seeing you shredding on the slopes this season.
Sledding/Tubing
Whether you are sledding or tubing on a groomed hill at a developed area or on a hill in an undeveloped area, several of our national forests will have a sledding/tubing experience that is just right for you.
Because they are hard to steer, the best place to use a tube is in a tubing park - often found at ski resorts. Your best bet for information is to call the local ranger district office and inquire about any local tubing hills.
