Can I go to Big Bear without chains?

YOU MUST CARRY CHAINS IN YOUR VEHICLE AT ALL TIMES DURING WINTER! Carry a sturdy shovel and cat litter - or gravel - should you need to dig out of a berm or create additional traction on icy roads. When driving during or shortly after a storm, expect delays. Plan on leaving extra early to manage heavy/slow traffic.
