Big Bear Lake is icy hot with snow and fall color juxtaposed.

The fall color to be seen at Big Bear is worth bundling up and heading to Big Bear.  As, a beautiful mix of fully peaking black oak and some lingering cottonwood provide swaths of bright color painted across the San Bernardino Mountains.

Southern California color spotter Alena Nicholas was out and about capturing the color and reports that Arctic Circle, between Big Bear Lake and the front side of the mountain, is at peak.

Elsewhere nearby, Arrowbear Lake is nearing Past Peak with its oak still showing color, but probably only for another week.
