Fast, Local Snow Removal When Skyland Storms Don’t Let Up
When heavy snow stacks up across Skyland and the pines bend over Lake Arrowhead, you need a crew that shows up fast and gets it done right. Our team at Poseidon Valley Tree Services delivers reliable snow removal service during winter storms so you can get out, get to work, and keep your place safe.
We know these mountain roads by heart—Highway 18, Daley Canyon, and those steep Skyland driveways that turn slick at dusk. You’ll hear our plows before sunrise, see the glow of the light bar, and feel the difference once our 24/7 snow removal team has cleared every pass and walking path.
Emergency Snow Plowing
When a cold Pacific storm rolls in and dumps heavy, wet snow from Skyforest to Cedar Glen, minutes matter. We run emergency snow plowing through the night to keep driveways, private lanes, and shared roads open in Skyland and around Lake Arrowhead Village.
Our operators know the slopes along SR-173 and those tight turns by Blue Jay where snow berms sneak up and trap cars. We clear down to a safe base, widen your lane, and haul back the pile so your driveway snow removal doesn’t turn into a frozen wall by morning.
If wind drifts close off your street near Rimforest or the sun drops and turns slush to black ice, we’ll circle back for another pass. We monitor storm tracks and chain-control updates, adjusting routes so your plow service in Skyland stays on time and on target.
– We prioritize access for medical needs, steep grades, and homes off Rim of the World Highway (SR-18).
– We coordinate with neighbors and HOAs so shared roads get a single, efficient snow plow route.
– We offer photo confirmation, so you know your entry and parking areas are open before you head out.
Ice Control & De-Icing
In the San Bernardino Mountains, the shade under tall cedars freezes fast—even when the day warms. That’s why our crews apply ice control and de-icing after plowing, focusing on slopes, curves, steps, and walks that refreeze at dusk.
We use the right product for the spot—treated ice melt on concrete, sand for traction on steep private roads, and pet-safe blends near entries. You’ll notice better grip underfoot and on tires, because our de-icing service in Skyland is built for mountain temps and overnight lows.
Need black ice knocked down along your driveway by Grass Valley Road or your mailbox pullout by Twin Peaks? We’ll salt, sand, and check again after sundown, since freeze-thaw cycles can surprise even seasoned locals.
– We target shady corners and north-facing slopes where black ice forms first.
– We protect concrete and landscaping with the right ice melt products.
– We return for touch-ups during storm events to keep walkways and stairs safe.
Commercial & HOA Snow Removal
Businesses around Lake Arrowhead Village and HOAs up near Skyland can’t shut down every time SR-189 gets slushy. Our commercial snow removal plans keep parking lots open, storefronts clear, and liability low when the snow stacks up.
We create a plow map for your property—traffic lanes, loading zones, ADA paths, and fire lanes all get priority. Then we stage equipment nearby so storm response stays quick, even when the snow comes in bands.
For private roads and community drives, we coordinate start times with your board and send updates after each pass. You’ll get before/after photos, clear invoices, and a reliable service schedule that fits your operation.
– We set up seasonal contracts for predictable winter maintenance.
– We mark curbs, drains, and hydrants to prevent plow damage.
– We include de-icing and walk shoveling for complete site safety.
Did You Know?
Skyland sits along the Rim with views that stretch from Lake Arrowhead to the high desert, and with that elevation comes serious snow. Locals know that SR-18, the Rim of the World Highway, can swing from sunny to whiteout in a single curve, making winter storm response a must.
In the early days, neighbors hand-shoveled shared roads and flagged down county graders when storms drifted in. Today we use compact plows and loaders that can squeeze along mountain lanes and tight drives without tearing up your edge.
Our crews grew up on these roads—Blue Jay Market runs, weekend kids’ games in Twin Peaks, and long winter nights listening for the plow. That local knowledge helps us spot trouble early and deliver dependable snow removal when the wind picks up through the pines.
Knowledge & Safety Notes
Storm safety comes first on Skyland hillsides and around San Bernardino County. We follow county guidance for mountain operations and coordinate access around emergency routes, using best practices for snow and ice control to protect people and property.
Before big events, check official chain-control updates and closures so you’re not stuck on SR-330 or SR-18 when conditions change. Caltrans posts live info and cameras on QuickMap, and their site shares rules on traction devices and safe travel; see Caltrans QuickMap and Caltrans travel resources for verified storm updates.
For household safety, keep a shovel, ice melt, and a clear exit path, and watch for roof sheds after heavy snow. County crews plow main roads, but private drives and lots are on you; learn how the county handles snow on maintained routes at San Bernardino County Public Works snow removal operations and brush up on NOAA winter storm safety tips for mountain communities.

Local Service FAQs
How fast can you reach my Skyland driveway during a heavy storm?
We run rotating crews during active snowfall and prioritize steep grades and medical needs near SR-18 and Daley Canyon. Most routes are serviced within a few hours, with return passes as snow accumulates. Our dispatch texts ETAs so you know when your plow is on the way.
Do you offer pet-safe ice melt for walkways around Lake Arrowhead homes?
Yes, we carry pet-safe blends that work well in mountain temps without hurting paws or plants. We’ll apply it to entries, decks, and stairs and use sand for traction on steeper paths. Ask for our pet-friendly de-icing option when you schedule.
Can you clear private roads and HOA lanes off SR-173 without blocking mail or trash service?
We map hydrants, mailboxes, dumpsters, and turnarounds before the storm so they stay accessible. Our operators push snow to designated storage areas and return for cleanup if berms build back. We coordinate timing with your HOA to reduce conflicts and keep access points open.
What happens if the plow leaves a berm after Caltrans passes the main road?
Berms happen when public plows clear the highway and push snow across private entrances. If it blocks you in, we’ll return and reopen the apron so you can pull out safely. Just call dispatch and request a berm knockdown pass.
