Grouse Mountain

Grouse Mountain, a prominent North Shore peak above Vancouver in British Columbia, rises 1,231 metres in the Pacific Ranges and has become a major year-round recreation destination on the traditional territories of the Coast Salish peoples. Named in 1894 after the sooty grouse, it developed from early hiking and hand-built skiing facilities into a modern resort with chairlifts, tramways, and extensive ski terrain. Its visible slopes, night skiing, snowmaking, and the steep Grouse Grind helped make it regionally famous. Later additions such as the Eye of the Wind and the Blue Grouse Gondola expanded its role as a prominent destination for outdoor recreation and tourism.
