Visitor Reviews of Cypress Mountain

MCBrown from CANADA writes:

Cypress is great. I was up there a couple days ago (boxing day). I went up with my cousin at 2.30pm just hoping to rip some groomers and get some laps in the park. First... you park rats will definitely be disappointed. There were like 3 eaaaaaaaasy flat boxes set up and one small-medium kicker and that's it!!!! Funny thing is there were like 6 park crew guys in the park.. make any sense?
Anyway, after 4 or 5 runs they finally opened the sky chair (top of the mountain). by this time it was dark out except for the lights. Totally took me by surprise but the sky chair had not been open all day so there was practically untouched knee deep pow up top!! I have never shredded fresh powder at night and let me tell you, it's amazing!
All in all Cypress is great. In previous years their park has been way bigger/better, lets hope they get crackin' on that soon. I was pretty much born and raised on Cypress even though I don't ride it often anymore (I'm a Mt Washington local now: way better park and way better terrain) I'd give Cypress 4/5 stars.

VANCOUVER'S ONLY BIG MOUNTAIN EXPERIENCE!

Welcome to Cypress Mountain, the Official Freestyle Skiing and Snowboard Venue for the 2010 Olympic Winter Games. Located in West Vancouver, BC, Canada, Cypress is only 30 minutes from downtown Vancouver and is proud to continue to provide our skiers, riders and sliders with the most vertical drop, most terrain, most lifts and best snow conditions on the highest skiing and riding peak of Vancouver's Legendary North Shore Mountains.

New for the 2008-2009 Winter Season is a brand new centrally located, 48,000 square foot timber frame Day Lodge housing all facilities in one building, scheduled for Winter Season opening. The new lodge will feature a large main floor family restaurant, a banquet room, a corporate meeting space and a huge bar and grill overlooking the half pipe.

A new gladed run named "Shore Glades" that runs through a forest and spills out to a panoramic view of Vancouver, the Lower Mainland and Mount Baker, will be open for the winter off the Raven Ridge Quad Chair!

Ski Run improvements are being completed on Benny's, Coyote 7, Black Fly, Meteor & Humpty Dumpty and new lighting is planned for Humpty Dumpty AND Rainbow Ski Runs.

We have relocated and expanded our Kids Camp area and re-installed the magic carpet lift. As well Cypress will be adding another 2 snow cats to our grooming fleet this winter!

This coming season marks the completion of the second phase of Cypress Mountain's major transformation.

You will also see the completed Freestyle Skiing and Snowboard Venues for the 2010 Olympic Winter Games as well as a state of the art snowmaking system. Be part of the excitement as Cypress Mountain will host the Freestyle Skiing FIS World Cup and the Snowboard FIS World Cup in February 2009. We hope that all our guests will join us in cheering on our Canadian Athletes competing on their home turf and setting their sights on 2010!
