With the Grouse Grind under his belt, Isaac took on the mighty Chief of Squamish. Yep, he's gonna hike to the very top of the cliff (by the trail around the back side).
Here's the start... Notice the warning below the word "Caution"... "This is not a walk in the Park!" Does Isaac's expression sum it up, or what?!
With all the fitness that he gained by hiking the Grouse Grind, the Chief trail was no match... sprinting up the stairs (time: 3 min).
Near the top, there was even a ladder to climb. Time: 50 min.
Then open granite climbing. Time: 55 min.
The final approach to the summit with views of Howe Sound and Highway 99 from Vancouver. Time 1 h, 5 min
And the top! Time 1 h, 7 min. That's 16 minutes faster than the Grouse Grind. And he did it without a break this time (at age 8)!
