Lions Chair Cam at Cypress Mountain

The Lions Chair Vantage

Perched on the upper slopes of Cypress Mountain, this camera rides above the Lions Chair lift line, capturing the chairs and towers as they climb the mountainside. The panoramic sweep takes in groomed runs, exposed rock, and the dense coastal forest that blankets the North Shore.

A North Shore Landmark

Cypress Mountain sits within Cypress Provincial Park above West Vancouver, one of the three local mountains that overlook the Vancouver metropolitan area. It hosted freestyle skiing and snowboarding events during the 2010 Winter Olympics, cementing its status as a premier alpine destination.

Views to the Strait of Georgia

Beyond the ski runs, the lens reaches across Howe Sound and the Strait of Georgia toward the Gulf Islands and, on a clear horizon, the silhouette of Vancouver Island. This blend of mountain and sea makes the outlook one of the most distinctive on Canada's Pacific coast.
