Arriving at the base of Grouse Mountain, participants board the “Super Skyride.” This aerial tramway will whisk the guests up an unforgettable “five minute mile” close to the 4,000 foot peak of Vancouver’s highest mountain.
Host Sponsor
A private tour of the Eye of the Wind will follow; this is the world’s first wind turbine with an elevator accessed ViewPOD that will make you feel like you’re walking on the wind! Grouse Mountain’s Eye of the Wind turbine is the embodiment of innovation and responsibility, in environmental, social, and economic terms. Stand at the bottom of the 65-metre tower and you’ll start to get a sense of the magic.
