32 Stunning Winter Photos of Cypress Mountain

Just a 30-minute drive out of downtown Vancouver sits 600 acres of prime skiable area at Cypress Mountain. The ski resort, which hosted some 2010 Winter Olympic events, includes 53 alpine runs – many of which are accessible for night skiing. There is also 19 km of cross country trails, freestyle terrain and snowshoeing tours.

Riding into the sunset! It was another great day, time for some night skiing! We are open till 10pm! • #cypressmountain #cypressmtn #sunset #yvr #vancouver #skiing #snowboarding #winter #snow

I hope that at some point in your life you get the chance to feel small – not insignificant, but small. The kind of small that humbles you and makes you realize that all of this is much bigger than any single one of us. That we, as individuals, are just a speck in it all. #RealTalk #ChasingSunrise

Vancouver you're doing a great job with the unexpected snowfalls. Would you please stick around a few more days and grant us a white Christmas? (Santa, I hope you're reading this ??)

It's usually a sign of a good ski day, when the sun is just about to disappear below a sea of clouds, with some more uphill and traversing to go, followed by almost 1400m of vertical to descend to #lionsbay. Dont worry though, the #northshorebeerandpieclub members always have the two essentials to make it through these long days.
