The Snowshoe Grind

We regret to inform you that due to limited usage, we have made the difficult decision to discontinue the operation of the Snowshoe Timer. We appreciate the support and interest from our guests and thank you for your understanding.

Grouse Mountain has translated the intensity and accomplishment of the Grouse Grind into a winter experience – the Snowshoe Grind. Located mountaintop, the Snowshoe Grind promises to challenge. Starting outside the Chalet adjacent the Skyride ramp and just southwest of the skate pond, the Snowshoe Grind is the perfect way to start Grouse Grind hiking season fit and strong, while embracing a snowy winter landscape.
