UC Riverside Outdoor Excursions is running a three-day Big Bear snowboarding adventure from Sunday, December 13 through Tuesday, December 15, 2026. The public UCR event listing gives the trip window as 8:00 AM Sunday through 6:00 PM Tuesday, while the live registration offering calls it “Big Bear Snowboarding and Meteor Shower.” The organizer advertises the program as open to the public for ages 17 and older.

The package includes round-trip transportation, snowboard gear, accommodations in UCR’s Big Bear lake house, meals and guidance from Outdoor Excursions trip leaders. Lift tickets are not included. UCR says discounted lift tickets can be purchased from the Outdoor Excursions Shop during the week before departure, and optional lessons are available for an additional charge. The organizer does not identify the exact ski area, slope schedule, departure point, daily itinerary or lesson provider on the public pages; those details should be confirmed directly with Outdoor Excursions.

The official price range is $190–$210. UCR identifies $190 as the student/SRC-member price; the exact eligibility attached to the $210 tier is not spelled out without signing in. Registration opened September 2 and has a published deadline of Thursday, December 10 at 4:00 PM PST, but the live offering was already explicitly marked Full when checked. No public waitlist control was displayed. Do not assume a place is available because the deadline has not passed—contact Outdoor Excursions about cancellations or any private waitlist before making plans.

The registration system requires a waiver and lists an age range of 17–120. Capacity, roommate assignments, transportation pickup, parking, detailed equipment sizing, lift-ticket discount amount, lesson pricing, accessibility accommodations, cancellation/refund terms and a weather contingency are not published on the event page. This is a participation trip rather than a spectator program; no livestream or public viewing component is announced.
