It is quite Bad organized. everything on paper, having to fill several forms with the same info. long rows forma everything, it took us 2 and a half hours to get our season pass and rentals already ordered and paid on Internet, with the info already filled on Internet as well. Instead the 21st century It felt like the 19th
Good amount of parking, reasonable quality of food, and runs for most levels of skill. Id say its a great mountian for your every day casual winter sports enthusiast.
This is a review of the guest relations office. I contacted Cypress on October 2nd, 2017 about the small size seasonal locker. I got a response on November 6th, 2017 informing me the confirmation deadline is two days later and if I wanted the locker, I should respond with my personal and credit card information. I responded the same day. I then get an email on November 8th, 2017 informing me that they only have large lockers remaining and that I should pay extra if I wanted them.
Either the wait-list filled up before October 2nd, 2017 and guest relations asked for my personal/financial info knowing this or someone messed up and gave away lockers out of order.
I have asked guest relations to respond. I will update if/when this matter is closed.
nice local ski place, much better then grouse mt., but often crowded and hard to find parking
Awesome place to snowboard and ski. 30 minutes from downtown Vancouver if you catch traffic right. Nice after-ski lounge. Sea to Sky at its best!
Breathtaking views! Loved hiking this mountain. Probably my favourite one I have hiked in Vancouver. Better than Grouse in my opinion. I think Grouse is overrated. Cypress Mountain isn't that hard to hike either, so you can enjoy your way up.
Trade off: pricier and higher elevations than Grouse and Seymour, but a lot more terrain. The terrain parks aren't quite as well designed either. Great spot for night skiing though, and a fun bike ride up to the top too.
Not sure how to rate a mountain, but there are lots of things to do here, so I guess it's pretty good. Huge points for being only 25 mins from downtown Vancouver. Snowboarding and snowshoeing are both solid for local mountains at a more affordable price than Whistler. There are also great hikes here, including Eagle Bluffs, which has awesome views of the city and the surrounding area.
This review is about the cross-country area. I have been there over a dozen times and every time the experience is very positive. Trail grooming is good, staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Prices are reasonable. Get there early (before 9:30 on weekends) if you don't want to park too far away. Great views and plenty of trails so even if there are many people it won't feel crowded. The warming hut at the upper power lines area is a nice touch and acts as a social and gathering place for those so inclined, or simply as a marker for those just blazing through. The Nordic Cafe chalet is fine and has all the basics. Areas for improvement could include opening Brothers Canyon East and the trails around there more often, along with more clearly indicating when it is open and when it is not.
I come here like every year and the staff is amazing the food is good (a bit over priced but worth it) the hills are really good for all riders. Organized staff too. Also a very good view and really awesome tarrain parks. really good for experts but also pretty good for beginners and intermediates. I JUST HAVE TOO MUCH FUN
