Grouse Grind

We were VERY blessed to inherit a wonderful baby hiking carrier!!!  What a special gift that we are excited to put to good use over the years! 

Sully is excited to finally be able to see the world while in a carrier!

We decided to do the Grouse Grind as our first hike with the new carrier - Trishy came along for the hike too!

When we started the hike we were in a foggy world but as we climbed 2,800 feet we passed through the clouds and there was beautiful HOT sunshine awaiting us at the summit.

this sign is at the beginning of the hike...Grouse Grind is not for the faint at heart

We climbed 2,830 stairs over 2.9km to reach the summit - it's a very cool hike!

halfway there

we did it - the summit!!!

hard to see but there is a "ocean" of clouds beneath us



it was HOT at the top of the mountain we took some time to enjoy the weather

we also checked out the Grizzly's that live at the top of the mountain

again we are amazed at the beauty that is right around the corner
