Up,Up and Away
They say never trust anyone below 4,000 feet… but honestly, the high-country crew might be even wilder. Living up here takes a little crazy, a lot of grit, and a love for rugged mountain life! Dive in below to explore out of bounds…if you dare…
Alright, die-hard adventure seekers—you’ve made it past the 5,000‑foot mark, where things. get. wild. If you stumbled here by accident, the homepage can guide you back to safer territory.
In the summer, altitudes of 7,000+ feet are pure magic. The air is crisp, the water crystal clear, and a slew of high-altitude lakes await your exploration. Communities like Tamarack, Cottage Springs, and Bear Valley line the Highway 4 corridor, offering single-family homes and condos as perfect crash pads after a day of adventure.
Sounds easy enough, right? Now add ten feet of snow and grab your life jacket! Not that it will help, this water is frozen. Condos in Bear Valley Village make winter a breeze—drop your gear and hit the slopes. Homes in the village and Sky High Ranch? You’ll need a grittier approach: think snowshoes, a ski mobile, or perhaps a reindeer-drawn sleigh. Roads aren’t plowed, so adventure is mandatory.
Many homes in Bear Valley also come with optional access to Bear Lake, where you can admire the towering reflection of Bear Valley Ski Resort—your alpine playground awaits.
