Left Hope at first light and went straight to Capilano Bridge, already heaving with tourists... relative to our usual remoteness!
Probably very quiet for them - end of season by now. Wobbly bridge, forest track, tree top trail, marvelled at huge trees, cliff-top walk (new since I was last here) and a quick bite to eat before carrying on up the road to Grouse Mountain.
Instead of taking the longer Grouse Grind route on foot
we opted for the cable car up
Open ski lift at the top, viewing platform inside the wind turbine, saw the grizzlies chilling in their pool, and the 'world famous' lumberjack show
What a day, finished off with some rush-hour driving through the city!
Sure packed a lot in to this whole trip - great memories of some amazing experiences
- crossing Capilano Bridge
- impressive trees!
- :)
- held on with one anchor?! :o
- Vancouver from Grouse Mountain
- heading for the viewing platform up top :)
- pretty quiet up here now
- this one's a captive, still good to see this close :)
