One of the seattle papers today has a story on the Whistler bike park. They mention how we have no parks since Crystal and the Scummit closed down 2 years ago. However they do mention Cypress in West Vancouver will be running summer operations next year.

Discuss amongst yourselves........

hey thanks for the link! Thats the article.

Here is the paragraph mentioning Cypress...

"The park is popular among Western Washington riders, especially since The Summit at Snoqualmie and Crystal Mountain quit running lift-served bike operations two years ago, apparently because of liability issues and environmental concerns on their leased national forest lands. They'll have another option next year, however, since Cypress Mountain ski area in West Vancouver announced last week that it will operate a mountain bike park beginning next summer."
