The area was once populated by only Native Americans and the grizzly bears, from which the area received its name. Not to worry, grizzly bears have not been found in the region since 1908. Black bears were introduced in the region in 1933. Big Bear Valley grew rapidly during the Southern California Gold Rush from 1861 to 1912. This trail is perfect for an introduction into this beautiful area of Holcomb Valley and Big Bear Lake.
