Who ever said that black bears don’t enjoy skiing? Check out this bear going for a quick slide in the snow at a ski resort.

Whether it was a way to cool off or just a fun way to pass some time, the black bear in this video took advantage of some leftover snow on a slope while several people looked on from the ski lift above.

In this video from CANADA Explore, the bear took a trotting start before leaping onto his stomach on the snow and sliding down the slope. He even flips onto his side before finishing his trip through the snow patch.


British Columbia is a province located on the west coast of Canada. British Columbia is also a component of the Pacific Northwest, along with the U.S. states of Oregon and Washington. The province's name was chosen by Queen Victoria in 1858, reflecting its origins as the British remainder of the Columbia District of the Hudson's Bay Company. In 1871, it became the sixth province of Canada. Its Latin motto is Splendor sine occasu ("Splendour without Diminishment").
