Climbing the Summit of Hollyburn Ridge

I went snowshoeing up Hollyburn ridge on Cypress today. Well, crampons not snowshoes as it was hard packed and a little icy. The first pic is the view from the look out on Cypress you can drive up to. The second picture is the way up from the Nordic parking lot.
This one is on Hollyburn Ridge:
This one is the Lions from Hollyburn Ridge.
This one is of the cargo shps in the port of Vanacovuer:
Whiskey Jacks will eat out of your hand on Hollyburn.
There was some awesome inversion over the water towards Vancovuer Island but I guess I didn't take a picture of it. I uploaded a video but I forgot to video the inversion. My bad. You can see it from the webcam on Sky Chair. This was my first time out this season so I'm a little out of shape. Now that I'm older I'm more mindful of my heart rate and paused a few times on the final ridge to get my heart rate down. Slow and steady wins the race. As long as you summit it's all good.
