CYPRESS MOUNTAIN CN89 WEST VANCOUVER



CYPRESS MOUNTAIN (2780 ft)in CN89 above West Vancouver is another great site for portable or mobile radio operation in the Vancouver area.Access is off the sea to sky highway in West Vancouver take the turn off to the Cypress mountain ski resort.There are numerous places (including a couple of side roads)to pull off the main road on the way to the ski resort parking lot.Easy access to set up a portable radio set up winter or summer makes this location in cn89 area a great location.Excellent views to the south , east and west of Vancouver,Mount Baker in Washington and Vancouver Island.I operated both field day and vhf contest from Cypress mountain years ago with good results.Check it out when you are in the area.73s and best dx.
