Cypress Mountain 2021/ 2022

Nice opening day at Cypress with LeopardSkin/Tony. Excellent groomers under sunny sky. Surprisingly never got tracked out considering only 1 run open.

Salvaged AJ's reject 152 cm snowboard ... works like a charm. Way shorter and not as stiff as my old board ... great for tighter turns. Thanks buddy

Day 7 - Went for REVENGE session since I'll be missing Wednesday and Thursday.

The groomers salvaged what the could for Eagle Chair. Lots of brown patches but just enough snow for cranking turns without hitting rocks or sand. Fun turns for an hour before it got tracked out.

5 cm of new snow. Heading up for a revenge session

Crap. Only the easy rider is open today

Day 8 - Hill feels pretty thin ... but skiers right under the fence was 5 cm of fresh for some fun snowboarding.

Gonna comfort myself with some poutine to cry away the westerly I'll miss this afternoon

Day 9 - Eagle's open again. Nice stashes of fresh mini-pow under the snow guns for over an hour. Absolutely no wait times for singles today.

Fingers crossed for Monday morning.

Day 10 - All the usual suspects (Rob W, Bob, Doug, Bill, Brian C, LeopardSkin). Nice 3cm of fresh on the main runs but 10-15 cm down Jasey Jay - but icy bottom ... I hope.

Thanks to Rob W for recommending the secret run (shown below). LeopardSkin and I enjoyed the 10-15 cm of POW for our last run.
