This past weekend, I decided it was time to stop talking about enjoying all of the amazing things you “can” do in Vancouver and instead… make it happen! After all, this is an amazing city with all kinds of outdoor activities available right at our doorstep. Just check out a local’s perspective on the Tourism Vancouver website to see what I mean. (Just for the record… I want to try all of these within the next year!)

So, with that in mind, I decided there is no better way to test one’s physical condition than to go ahead an climb a mountain…right!?!? When you look North from downtown Vancouver, there are many amazing mountains that fill the skyline. The biggest of these mountains is Grouse Mountain.
