That's the correct price for Silver Xtra renew rate.
I overpaid by $70 for the full rate. Cypress Guest Services would not refund me but instead gave me a $70 voucher.

Holeey moley…skied the deepest, coldest powder today, of all year, under the bluest of skies. Fried my legs, last run was on fumes, best day yet, and there have been some very good ones prior. If I don’t ski another day this season, I’ll be content till next year…however it was not on cypress…does it still count?

Day 3: Cypress. Thanks to traffic I was through the gates at 9 which meant I missed seeing the "regulars". Much better conditions and sunshine made it a win. High cost per session this year but still pulled the trigger on a pass for next year.

Sorry we missed you. The season's not over yet so you can still get the cost per session way down.

Day 45 - Surprisingly good day with LeopardSkin. Enjoyed the bumps on Jasey Jay and Hutch. We scored first tracks on Crazy Raven with 2-3 cm of fresh on skiers left ... for some epic high speed turns. Scored some stashes of deep fresh on Coyote 7 (twice) then finished off with the super secret Bilodeau run for even more stashes of fresh.

Day 46 - One chair (Raven) and 2 runs ... Coyote 7 (2 times) and Bilodeau (8 times on soft bumps). Great solo session without LeopardSkin ... but spotted Bob and Rob on Panorama.

Day 47 - Best session of the season. Tons of untracked 15-25 cm fresh (aka heavy pow). Started with Jasey Jay and Asheigh McIver. Broke trail from Crazy Raven to Coyote 7. Second tracks on super secret Bilodeau/Olympic run and first tracks down Shoreline. No wait times on the Raven Chair so had all the runs to myself ... which is awesome for a busy weekend :D

Yes, it was a great day on the fat skis today. By the way, those were my first tracks on our secret run. :D

Day 49 - One of the top sessions of this season with 20-30 cm of untracked fresh on Coyote 7, Olympic/Bilodeau, Meteor and Black-On-Black (my favorite). Seemed like LeopardSkin and I had the runs and the Raven chair all to ourselves with zero wait times.
