Big Bear Lake, CA
Big Bear Alpine Zoo, located within Big Bear Valley Recreation and Park District, is a 5.6 acres property home to many native wildlife to the Big Bear Lake area. Satchell Engineering & Associates designed the Life Support System for the two pools located within the Black Bear Exhibit, that total to 6,600-gallons, and the one pool within the Grizzly Bear Exhibit, that holds 9,300-gallons.
