Cypress Mountain’s New “Lions Express” High Speed Quad Chair well underway!
More Lifts, More Terrain, More Vertical, More Excitement!
WEST VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA – Cypress Mountain is pleased to announce the Lift Towers for the New “Lions Express” High Speed Detachable Quad Chair were flown into place today! This is a major milestone in our expansive summer development program!
“Where the Sunrise Quad was previously located, Cypress is installing a brand new High Speed Detachable Quad Chair, appropriately named the “Lions Express Quad Chair,” said Joffrey Koeman, Director of Sales & Marketing. “This new high speed lift will wisk our guests up Mt. Strachan in only 4 minutes and getting them closer to the breath taking view of The Lions, a Vancouver Landmark located within Cypress Provincial Park. The previous ride time was approximately 10 minutes.” said Koeman.
Also underway are 9 new Ski Runs on the east facing slope of Black Mountain representing a 40% overall expansion to the Ski Area. To service this new area Cypress is relocating the Sunrise Quad Chair and re-launching the chair as the Raven Ridge Quad Chair. This will be the first major expansion of terrain on the North Shore since Sky Chair was opened in 1987!
For this upcoming winter season Cypress will have 51 Ski Runs accessed by 9 lifts! To see all the plans for the coming year or to purchase winter season passes please visit www.cypressmountain.com
