Grizzly bears Grinder and Coola are up at the top of Grouse Mountain. They have a decent habitat and seem relatively happy. There's a video about how they came to be up at Grouse shown in the Chalet as they were both rescued from the wild. There's a small interpretive centre and the bears come up really close to the fence. Beautiful animals and while I wish they were free and roaming, I understand why they are here. Rare you'll get a chance to see grizzlies from such close range.

The Bears look healthy and happy, the presentations were very informative and interesting. Great way to see grizzlies without fearing for your life.
According to person here, last year grizzly bears went into sleep and they shut the door on 12/1. But they started sleeping from 11/15 or so. They are 19 years old, and they came here when they were cubs. Big one weigh around 1060 pounds and smaller one 900 something. The day was nice when we visited so we could see grizzly bear outside under the sun trying to eat some grass(?) and just hanging around. It was very nice.
It was nice to know that they take care about the wild life. The bears don't live in the nature like in Banff. Very nice area. Friendly staff around.
It’s awesome to watch the mighty grizzlies go about their daily business from such close proximity. It does concern me that the bears are at the end of the day trapped in an enclosure. However, the Grouse Mountain facility treats the bears very well. They only have the bear outdoors in the summer months.
