Cypress Peak Scramble

SUBSCRIBE: bit.ly/lifeofluke
It's hard to have a bad day on a peak as majestic as Cypress, with blue glaciers, vibrant wildflowers, a fun crux, and some of the best views near Whistler. Oh and great company with Joel, who suggested this mountain.
Thanks for watching!

Only made it up as far as Cypress Hill

[@lifeofluke]

haha a Cypress Hill pun is appropriate

[@stuartb9194]

Your dog must have vibram paws!

[@anouk8231]

Your the inspiration for my hike list

[@lifeofluke]

There's so much to see and do and so little time...

[@JesusFriedChrist]

Your drone shots are always out of this world. 👌🏼

[@petemichael4512]

I love the shots where it starts out on you and then retreats to show you at the top of the peak. The perspective is thrilling.

[@lifeofluke]

Thanks Pete, I love using it so show how small humans are on the massive landscape!

[@599miata]

[@vespill708]

I want to like this video 10 times! This is definitely in your top 5 videos for me. Your videos have inspired me so much in pushing myself further to see the scale of the beauty of this province. And as someone who appreciates cinematography, this video excels in that as well. Absolutely magnificent :)

[@admarquis]

Great video as always, I love the huge water sound even though it's loud 😁 loved the retro music on this one, appreciate the variety in your videos, the quality of the shots too, just wow, congrats! 😁🙏🙋‍♀️

[@lifeofluke]

Haha yep, I even turned down the volume on the water cause it was thunderous, thanks Adam!

[@Mn690]

I’ve been watching your amazing videos for some time now. It makes me want to return and explode other parts of Canada that I missed during my childhood. Your canine friend must have great balance and excellent instincts.

[@lifeofluke]

Thanks, I appreciate that, and yes, Nina is a fantastic scrambler

Love those drone shots. Looks like an awesome day!

[@lifeofluke]

Thanks Chris!

[@michaelsewell3704]

Great video Luke! I really enjoyed that! Keep it up. Just don’t give away the secrets lol.

[@lifeofluke]

Thanks Michael, this spot was seldomly climbed before and is unlikely to attract many people since the access has now been made more difficult

[@michaelsewell3704]

@@lifeofluke much agreed. Don’t take it the wrong way. I don’t think your giving away any secrets. You walk the line nicely lol.

[@lifeofluke]

Thanks, I didn't take it personally, just providing reasoning

[@joepolophotography]

Duuude. I need to get out there

[@lifeofluke]

I highly recommend it!

[@joepolophotography]

@@lifeofluke not very good at scrambling like that maybe I will start small with st marks summit

[@lifeofluke]

ya for sure, start small and work your way up, gaining experience on the way

[@coryhobbs5386]

The Hawaiian shirt makes for good high viz gear

[@jacksenpeters6112]

Love your videos! Been a fan of your content for a few months now, love to watch your videos after a long day too unwind. Just wanted to make a suggestion to turn down the audio on the rushing water shots in your videos when editing.. always gets Extremely loud in contrast to everything else.. cheers!!

[@lifeofluke]

That is with the creek volume turned down, it was roaring. Next time I'll turn it down even more

[@andrewjensen8189]

Ok yeah that confuse me... I was like there's no way Cypress (Ski) Mountain looks THAT different in the summer... Lol

[@keithhepworth4934]

Loved it. Nina seems so adventurous, do you ever encounter climbs she can’t handle? Do you ever end up having to haul her up or down?

[@lifeofluke]

Occasionally I help boost her up big blocks and ledges but I pick routes that I'm sure we can make it up and down

[@ivanandreevich8568]

At first I thought Cypress mountain (ie ski hill) and was very confused by the views :)

[@lifeofluke]

Haha yep, evidently it's not the only mountain in BC called Cypress

[@powshredder3716]

I want a colab vid with foresty forest

[@rickrayn]

I know that Nina is a Rock Dog but did she need any assistance on the scramble up or down?

[@lifeofluke]

Ya I boosted her up a couple ledges at the crux

[@outsidesamcub]

Hey Luke, what kind of drone do you use? Cheers! Always love your videos 😌 You might enjoy mine as well, bush flying adventures in BC. Take care!

[@lifeofluke]

Thanks Sam, I use the mavic 2 pro. Love the super cub and the STOL skills

[@robertblount5240]

What boots are you wearing? Do you have gators over them?

[@lifeofluke]

I'm not wearing gaiters here, they are the Salewa vultur evo boots

[@joshking9537]

how hard is the scramble compared to the black tusk scramble?

[@lifeofluke]

It's a little more challenging that black tusk due to the exposure
