Friday: Woke up at 7am (an hour earlier than intended because Taro wanted some attention) and started getting ready to head up to Grouse.
It was just going to be me, Alan and Jon…we had 2 extra seats but sadly everyone we asked to come was either working or broke =(
I don’t own any proper winter clothes so I just layered like crazy.
- Stockings, thigh high socks, socks over those, yoga pants, jeans.
- Tank top, long sleeved Hello Kitty jammie shirt, long sleeved hooded shirt, hoodie and coat.
It was snowing a tiny bit when they picked me up but the skies were blue and the sun was out, seemed like a perfect day to go up.
His GPS said it would take us only about 20mins to get there from my place, which I didn’t believe, but it was true o-o
Took us A LOT longer to find parking….about an hour or more…
In the one parking lot we could see part of the animal refuge, 3 beautiful wolves wandering around up close to the fence where some people were.
We eventually gave up and drove to the bottom of the mountain and parked on the side of the street, then hiked back up o-o
Had to walk on the street because there wasn’t really a sidewalk…
Got up and then into the large line up to buy our tickets to go up the scary gondola of DOOM~!

( more and photo heavy o-o )
