Vancouver Sidetrip: Fun on Grouse Mountain

By DH Wall - Posted on February 24, 2009 at 11:57 am

Looking for an easy and fun Vancouver sidetrip?  Try Grouse Mountain.

Grouse Mountain is a fun Vancouver sidetrip only about 15 minutes from Vancouver.

The fun starts at the bottom of the mountain where you hop onto a gondola.  The Grouse Mountain gondola (the "Grouse Mountain SkyRide") takes riders up to the Peak Chalet (elevation 1128m, 3700ft), not far from the peak of Grouse Mountain.

If you've ever wondered what it would be like to ride the Grouse Mountain gondola when the weather is foggy, look no further. Vancouver'd is about answers.

The answer: it sucks.

This video proves it.

Unless you like fog, look for other activities besides Grouse Mountain on foggy days.
