I was in Vancouver for some work related biz. We had a company paid trip and visit to explore Grouse Mountain.
It was a stunning site! The air was crisper and cooler near the mountain (even at the bottom of the mountain). The trees were thick, dense, and a very rich green. Nature seemed to envelop us and we all seemed so insignificant in the gondola to go to the top of the mountain and as we rode the Sky Chair to the peak of the mountain. On the Sky Chair you can really feel the depth and vastness of our surroundings. It's so quiet and peaceful and the air is so fresh. The gondola and sky chair sway with the wind as they take you up. You really feel that nature is a big beast and we're just a tiny part of it. From the top of the mountain, looking down at the city of Vancouver, it's just stunning. So big and open. Water is surrounding it. The sun is dazzling and the buildings all sparkle like gems in the sun. The height of the mountain is intimidating. The Sky Chairs can feel a bit terrifying as its only a single bar keeping you secure. Your feet are dangling and vertigo kicks in. Have faith, hold on. It's just all too beautiful to ruin with such morbid thoughts. The view at the top? Incredibly stunning and breathtaking. It's all worth the scary ride to the top.
