Questions about the readiness of Cypress Bowl have dominated the latest news conference by Olympic organizers.

Media from around the world are expressing frustration with being not being able to get to the Vancouver site of Snowboarding and Aerials.

Organizers say the venue must remain closed because snow is still being trucked and flown from other mountains.

They say Media may be taken on a tour Tuesday.

As for the possible use of harsh chemicals to harden the snow, VANOC's Dave Cobb says they haven't been used yet, and they will not be used until deemed absolutely necessary closer to competition days.
