This the only family operated mountain on the North Shore, is fittingly tucked away behind the hustle and bustle of the city of Vancouver.

When you are located on the coast of B.C. you get tons of snow, so with an average snowfall of somewhere around 1000 cm a season the snow can sometimes cause you to forget about the size of the mountain. The chairs are slow and the line ups can get big on sunny weekends, but you will be hard pressed to find a hill anywhere with the feel of Seymour.
