Due to dwindling daylight hours, the gate will be closing at 2:20 pm.

Metro Vancouver Regional Parks is reminding hikers to prepare for chillier conditions. Wear extra layers, bring water and snacks, and always inform others about where you are going before heading out on your hike.

For those who are looking to opt out of exercising for more holiday-themed fun, head to Grouse Mountain for the Peak of Christmas, which runs until early January.
