The “front way” (Hwy 10 east to Hwy 30 to
Hwy 330 – becomes 18 in Running Springs) is the fastest from the LA Basin and
points south ---- when there is little traffic. It is also the most
winding.
The “back way” (Hwy 15 to 18 or Hwy 15 to Hwy 247 to
18) through Lucerne Valley is the best approach from Las Vegas, Palm Springs or
points north of Los Angeles. It is a much shorter mountain drive but does
have some tight curves. It is generally free of traffic. You will
enter Big Bear Valley on the north-eastern end. If you continue along the
North Shore of the lake and cross over the dam at the West end, you will avoid
most of the traffic.
Hwy 10 east to Highway 38 (Orange
Street) is the longest way up the hill but has lovely vistas. It has the
fewest curves and is also less traveled than the “front way”. You enter
the Big Bear Valley from the East and will continue through Big Bear City, past
Vons and Stater Brothers, the Resorts and the Village to the West end of the
lake to our office.
Our office is on Highway 18/Big Bear Blvd.
on the West side of the Lake near Boulder Bay.
