June 5, 2019
(North Vancouver) Grouse Mountain is excited to welcome racers to take on the challenge in the 16th annual Seek the Peak presented by VPG Realty Inc. taking place Sunday, June 16th. With every upward step, valuable funds will be raised for the BC Cancer Foundation’s lifesaving work in the fight against breast cancer.
The awe-inspiring climb from Ambleside Park to the Peak of Grouse Mountain tests participants’ fitness, stamina and overall mental toughness. Racers can face the 13km course on their own or tackle it with a team splitting up the legs including the famous Grouse Grind®. Once across the finish line the celebration begins with a variety of activities including award presentations taking place in the mountaintop plaza.
Since 2004, this unique event has raised over $465,000 in support of cancer research in British Columbia.
