O CANADA

Located in Canada's legendary North Shore Mountains, Cypress Mountain was the 2010 Olympic Winter Games' official freestyle skiing and snowboarding venue, not to mention the proud home of Canada's first Olympic gold medals on home snow. Some snowsports history, eh?

SIGNATURE PICK-ME-UPS

Grab a bite and a bevvy between runs at the Crazy Raven Pub. Be sure to try the mouthwatering lemon pepper wings and a pint of Granville Island Brewing's Cypress Honey Lager—with its soft malt flavor and dash of locally sourced honey, this homegrown Canadian brew is sure to hit the sweet spot.

SKI BUMS AND CITY SLICKAS

Squeeze in just a few more runs at dusk—with the largest night skiing operation in Western Canada, Cypress Mountain's slopes are floodlit during the normal season until 10 PM to please the all-day diehards. And if your legs simply can't take another turn, drive a quick 30 minutes to experience the bustling art, theater, music, and sports scene in downtown Vancouver.
