Mt. Cypress Dawn Patrol

After a rainy Monday, Joost had the glorious idea to check out the conditions on Mt. Cypress on early Tuesday mornig. Meeting point was 6.30 am at McDonalds at UBC, where we started the day with a horribly weak coffee. The sky was clear and we expected a great sunrise and fresh powder as we drove up. Right time, right place - a beautiful, cold and sunny morning at 8.45 am at the summit. See the panorama to Horseshoe Bay and the Lions as well as deep champaigne powder on the way down. Mt. Cypress officially opened...not.
