Grouse Mountain has been a key destination for hikers, nature lovers and tourists for more than 100 years. Over one million people visit annually. Fifteen minutes from downtown Vancouver, North America`s largest aerial tramway carries visitors high up to a resort where they can find something to do any season of the year. Whether they travel here to dine casually or formally, to take in the world famous Lumberjack show, to visit the Refuge for Endangered Wildlife, or to ski on the scenic slopes, there is something on Grouse Mountain to interest everyone. Grouse Mountain continues to expand its role as Vancouver`s premier four-season destination leading up to the 2010 Winter Olympics. This resort offers some of the most spectacular views of Vancouver, and its vibrance has inspired some of Canada best-known photographers to capture the sights and colors of the area -from the grandeur of the peak, to the thrill of a black-diamond run, to the entertainment of the Peak Chalet. With its breathtaking photographs, informative photographs, informative captions and eight recipes from the mountaintop`s fine-dining restaurant, the Observatory, this is the essential book for any visitor to Grouse Mountain. | Grouse Mountain by Chris Dagenais, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
