BCMC trail up Grouse.
I didn't really feel like going over to Grouse Mountain this morning but since it was a beautiful day and Tuesdays and Thursdays are supposed to be my grind days, I didn't have much of an excuse. I decided to suck it up. When I got to the bottom of Grouse I decided that I was in no mood to put up with tourists on the grind so I took the BCMC trail instead. It was gloriously quiet. I saw 5 people (all coming down) the entire time. I had forgotten how much easier the BCMC trail is compared to the grind but I wasn't complaining. I did get a little lost at the top (again). Even though I tried to followed the trail markers very carefully I somehow ended up on a trail that had "No bikers. No runners." painted on boulders. Eventually I found my way to the chalet but I am still not sure where exactly the trail is supposed to go at the top.
