Grouse Mountain was my destination on Tuesday, but I did not attempt snowshoeing the Grouse Grind ("Mother Nature's Stairmaster"). The Skyride lifted me above the amazingly tall trees, which were all covered in thick layers of snow, and onto the mountain. I walked past Santa's Workshop, which had candy canes outside, and took photos of the chainsaw sculptures, before consuming a nanaimo bar and writing more for NaNoWriMo. The amount of snow and the views of the extensive forests were breathtaking, although the bears were apparently hibernating.

I walked from Gastown to Chinatown after that, taking in the sights of the Steam Clock and Gassy Jack, as well as the world's narrowest building. At sunset, I made it to the Vancouver Lookout in the Harbour Centre Tower for more great views of skyscrapers.

I ended the day at a downtown write-in, tapping out a few more thousand words.
