Only a few miles away from downtown Vancouver, Cypress Mountain has one of the best ski resorts in Canada (Whistler & Blackcomb, 2 hours drive from Vancouver, is far larger than Cypress Mountain and definitely the best in Canada). Cypress Mountain will host some of the 2010 Winter Olympic games. This is also where I spent most of my winter sport time.
