      I’m eyeing up the zip line for our next trip. It’s a 3-hour, 9-zip line tour. You’ll have to check it out!

    I would love to visit that place in winter

      @SoCalDisneyDad  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That’s their most popular season. Lots of skiing and winter activities. I absolutely hate the cold, so I doubt I return in the winter, but I’m all for going back to go Jet Skiing.
      I tried on this trip, but Jet Ski rentals didn’t open for another week. I missed it by a week!

      We did! We are already trying to find a time to go back. Thanks for watching.

    What a cute little zoo. The Snow Leopards are gorgeous 😍
    My father used to take us up to big bear for fishing vacations. We did the alpine slide though they've made quite a lot of improvements since I've been (it was only alpine slide + water slide then). In that same area as the slides they had a little area with horses, llamas and things in a pen and you could go for horseback rides which was fun. I had a llama spit on me there too, lol.

      Those are such great memories! It's definitely got more offerings there now. I don't think I showed it, but I'd love to go back and do the Soaring Eagle sometime, which is a sort of zip line. We ran out of time that day for it.

      We are already trying to figure out 1) how to go back to Big Bear and 2) how to find time for a trip to Lake Tahoe and Yosemite in the nearish future. And of course we still really want to go to Universal.

    I never knew what an alpine slide was till this video :) looked like fun!

    • @SoCalDisneyDad
      @SoCalDisneyDad  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      They are! You have to be careful, though, if you go too fast you’ll wipe out and the consequences are not fun!
      I know from personal experience. 😂 And even after me recounting my thrilling tale to my father-in-law, he didn’t listen and wiped out himself on this visit. Skinned up his arm and knee pretty good.

    This was awesome. We live about 45min from big bear and go more during the summer but I have never done the slides or coaster. So definitely going to go this summer with my boy. Oh by the way they have great food at El Jacalo its Mexican food and right across is a great steakhouse, I forgot the name but its just across. Maybe you and Amy can have a date night. Hope to see more videos of Big Bear. Oh yeah there's a beach too on the other side of the lake, but I forgot the name lol. Have fun!

    • @SoCalDisneyDad
      @SoCalDisneyDad  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you! Yes, we'll need to go back up without the kids sometime and check out some of the food and enjoy the lake.

    that last coaster you were on is the same as the in Labadee, Haiti called Dragon's Tail Coaster.. but Labadee's is higher up i think. Very fun!

    Why I never have been to Big Bear. I don't know. It was 3hrs from Torrance. And it has camping which we do. Oregon has Mt Hood Meadows no zoo. But same kind of activities. The slide so much fun. Same exact one. No roller coaster. We have zip line and the sky tram. What a fun day.

    • @SoCalDisneyDad
      @SoCalDisneyDad  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Where I grew up, we had a ski resort that was similar. Had the alpine slide, and in the winter they’d have snow tubing and things like that. Always good memories, but it was a little closer to where we lived then Big Bear. But definitely will be going back sometime.

    Are the slides open today?

    • @SoCalDisneyDad
      @SoCalDisneyDad  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I would assume so? They were open this past weekend. But I’d check their website to be sure of their hours. The water slides weren’t open though. Just the Alpine slides.
      The water slides should be opening soon though. At least by Memorial Day I would think.
