\nA tragic accident on Cypress Mountain has claimed the life of a skier after a collision with a tree on Friday afternoon.<\/p>\n

Emergency crews were called to the popular ski resort around 2:30 p.m. after reports of a serious incident near one of the intermediate trails. According to Cypress Mountain officials, the skier, a man in his mid-30s, lost control while descending a slope and crashed into a tree at high speed.<\/p>\n

Despite immediate response from ski patrol and paramedics, the man succumbed to his injuries on site. Authorities have not released his identity pending notification of next of kin.<\/p>\n

“We are deeply saddened by this incident,” said a spokesperson for Cypress Mountain. “Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the skier during this incredibly difficult time.”<\/p>\n

Weather conditions at the time were reported to be clear, but RCMP and mountain staff are investigating whether speed, terrain conditions, or other factors contributed to the accident.<\/p>\n

The trail where the crash occurred has been temporarily closed while the investigation continues. Cypress Mountain remains open, but officials are urging skiers and snowboarders to exercise extra caution.<\/p>\n

This marks the first fatality of the season at the resort.<\/p>\n
