Big Bear residents are in a dire situation after all the routes leading to the area have remained closed since Friday with no estimated time of reopening.

The closure has frustrated many not only residents trying to return home but also those trying to leave. Authorities have set up roadblocks throughout San Bernardino County.
"I'm livid," said one resident. "There's been cars coming down all day long, two-wheel drive. We all have four-wheel drive with chains and they won't escort us up."
