Here's a bunch of Cypress pics, starting with the Sky Chair

the easy rider quad, only 28 chairs and 4 towers.

Bottom Terminal of the Sky Chair

Midway Chair

Top of Sky Chair

Looking out towards Horeshoe Bay Ferry terminal and Bowen Island, the road to Whistler (Sea-to-Sky Highway) runs down by Horeshoe Bay

Do they even run the Midway chair any more? When I used to ski there they hardly maintained the ramps, so it appeared that it ran intermittently at best. One other fun fact for those of you not familiar with Cypress- the Sky Chair (which one can see from Bellingham at night) has a generator next to the bottom terminal to provide power to the electric motor, because there is no mainline power up there.
BTW and not really on topic- Horseshoe Bay-Nanaimo ferry run A very senic ride.

Yes, they still operate midway chair

I took some pictures of the tubing lift at Cypress today, does anyone now who it is made by? I hope to have pictures of the downhill lifts soon but i was XC skiing today so i didnt take any.

I went up to Cypress yesterday to go searching for more stuff from the Hollyburn Chair. We decided to go to the ski area too so i got pics of all the lifts in the base area, here they are.

The base station and loading platform for bikers.

Looking into the liftie box at the bottom.

Bike carrier

What are those boxes for exactly?
