Spring must be truly here — the Grouse Grind opens for the season on Saturday.
The steep 2.9-kilometre trail from the base of Grouse Mountain opens to hikers at 6:15 a.m.
“We’re thrilled to kick off another season of hiking with the opening of the iconic Grouse Grind trail,” said spokeswoman Julia Grant.
About 150,000 people hike the Grind every year.
The trail, which takes hikers up 853 metres from the base and includes 2,830 stairs, is a ritual for thousands of Metro Vancouver residents, and a popular tourist destination.
