Did someone say Olympic-level excitement? It's right here! Cypress Mountain is not only a local favorite but also a historic Olympic venue, having proudly hosted Canada's FIRST home snow Olympic Gold Medals in 2010.

The views? Absolutely Instagram-worthy! As skiers and snowboarders carve their paths, the panoramic vistas stretch from Vancouver's shimmering skyline to the boundless beauty of the Pacific Ocean.
