For anyone else who loves Mount Seymour, this is best news in ages! I've been going to Seymour since I started snowboarding, for the great terrain park, awesome natural terrain and the awesome atmosphere. The only thing that has been keeping my friends from joining me is the slow lifts

MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR INVESTMENT AT MOUNT SEYMOUR
North Vancouver, BC - Mount Seymour is excited to announce the addition of the 5 million dollar state of the art Mystery Peak Express quad chairlift.
The new detachable high speed Doppelmayr lift from Austria will be installed over the summer months in time for the 2012-2013 season. Mystery Peak Express promises to cut line-up times by more than half. The new chairlift will transport skiers and boarders to the top of the mountain in record time, taking just four minutes, compared to the currently-in-use lift, which takes nearly nine minutes.
The upgrade follows the installation of Vancouver's only fully covered magic carpet conveyer lift this season, demonstrating Mt Seymour's ongoing commitment to providing guests with the best possible on mountain experience.
Mt Seymour Resorts' President, Eddie Wood, states, "We are proud to be installing a new high speed chairlift for our guests. Mt Seymour has long been the choice of local snow enthusiasts who love the natural terrain, affordable rates, family atmosphere and one of the best terrain parks in the country."
This has been Mt Seymour's snowiest season in a decade, with a current base of more than 600cm of snow. Skiers and snowboarders have come out in near record numbers. Spring pass sales alone more than doubled compared to last year.
Everyone is encouraged to enjoy the final weeks on the hill and we look forward to welcoming everyone back in September, when passes will be 60 percent off!
