Why bother spending the last few days of the year sleeping when you can wake up at 6 a.m. on the slopes of Grouse Mountain at the BCMC Cabin?
Here are mountaineer Neal Carter and friends waking up “too early” around Christmas time, before they make their final ascent of Grouse in 1920… as well as their first ascent of Grouse in 1921!
