Kat 🐱January 3, 2017Not comparable to Whistler, but it's a nice alternative since it's only 1-hour drive from Vancouver. Highly recommend ignoring the parking attendant to park closer to the lifts.
- Zakk DeVineMarch 7, 2013Hardly 30 minutes from Vancouver, Cypress is the locals choice to get some turns in! Awesome low-key vibe and a really fun mountain to spend the day on
- Katya NAugust 3, 2015Amazing hikes in the summer - try to get a weekday off though, it's worth it for the privacy
Rudolph EurichJanuary 24, 2015Very good for sknowboarding. The store there also has some equipments that's cheaper then in Vancouver downtown.
Emme RogersOctober 9, 2009Bar none, one of my fave winter dates. Moonlit cross-country skiing or snowshoeing with a stop at Hollyburn Lodge to relax with a hot chocolate and a local band. If you go in the day then pack a picni
Granville Island BrewingJanuary 20, 2012GIB Tip #42 for surviving the Wet..uh...we mean 'West' Coast: Optimism is key. If it's raining in the city, it's snowing on the local mountains!
Arthur LeeJanuary 10, 2016Amazing slopes. beware of ridiculously long lines during the holiday season
Head over to the Crazy Raven chair. While the chair may be slower, it has some of the best terrain on Cypress. Its also a lot less crowded during peak periods.
Brian GanterJanuary 9, 2016Shout out to the people whose winter gear consists of 4-5 layers of MEC summer gear.
- Looking for something new? Try one of their guided snowshoeing tours! Really! We had an awesome afternoon and spent less than $40 per person!
Scales RobertSeptember 10, 2009One of the best place to Ski/board in Vancouver in my opinion! Easy access, great snow most of the time and various skill level for everyone to enjoy..
- Awesome local mountain. I try to go here several times a season - well worth it.
Ronnie BoyFebruary 3, 2012if you live in van, great place to ride local! i live in the squish so i goto whistler instead!
Geoff PetersJanuary 4, 2011Cross country skiing here is great! lots of trails, and there is a lodge by the frozen lake with hot food.
Don't go down the black diamond runs after a dump of fresh snow LOL you'll end up walking the whole way.
BornUpNorthAugust 3, 2011Go snowshoeing under moonlight then relax at the lodge with a hotchocolate and some live music.
Charge your recon instruments goggles before you ride. They work a lot better when the battery has juice.
Josh TangJanuary 6, 2011Watch out coming up to here. Couple days straight cops have been catching ppl speeding
Patrick SDecember 19, 2010you can get tickets at the rental shop if the normal ticket line is too long.
Kelly RobertsonSeptember 9, 2009I want to go snowshoeing on Cyprus Mountain this winter! Can't wait for snow!
