I was at Cypress for a few hours on Wednesday night. The access road at the top was a bitch sketchy, but fine if you had winter tires. Had to dig my car out for 30min before I could leave though (was solo with an avy shovel so it took a long time and kept getting stuck with no one to push).

Not sure I'd drive up from the US for it, they had 45cm (1.5 feet) in 24h but it was with wind and some moisture content, was only mid boot deep. Still really fun, just not sure it's worth that long of a drive. I might come down to Baker on Saturday if it opens.

Oh and Van itself, the roads are fine now, not really any snow left just slush as it rained today.
