Description

Plan:

A quick morning fitness hike up Grouse, with a bit of scrambling along the way. We will meet at the Grouse Grind trailhead and hike up one of the lesser travelled trails between the Grind and BCMC trails. We will finish at the Grouse Mountain Chalet and take the gondola back down after.

If you do not have a Grouse pass you will need to purchase a download ticket for $20 online or $25 at guest services at the top.

It should take about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours to hike up.

Elevation gain: ~800m (same as the Grouse Grind)

Meeting Time: we will meet at 8:15 am for 8:30 am departure

Meeting Place: Grouse Grind Trailhead

Parking: Grouse parking lots are pay parking. If you don’t have a parking pass, you can park along the street below or some of the side streets for free.

Requirements:

Fitness: able to hike up the Grouse Grind in less than 1 1/2 hours

Equipment:

Hiking boots or trail runners
Raincoat – it might be wet
Small backpack with the 10 essentials
Bring extra clothes as it can be cold up there, especially after sweating our way to the top
Water.

Carpooling: I live pretty close to Grouse so I will not be car pooling, but I recommend it for anyone coming from further away, especially since the Grouse lots are pay parking. I will connect everyone on WhatsApp so you can make your own carpool arrangements.
