The quest

Lord Strathcona (west of centre, Calgary): read the plaque, copy one date and one name, leave. Not a war-tourism selfie.

Steps

  1. Stand on public ground at Lord Strathcona.
  2. Read the plaque. Copy one date and one name.
  3. Leave. Do not climb it.

Why this is on the board

Lord Strathcona (west of centre, Calgary) is how this part of Calgary remembers something. You get one date and one name — a piece of the street that does not show up in a listicle. Mapped under “Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians).”

Safety. Public ground only. Map data goes stale — if a rail, hour, or closure disagrees, leave. Not a guided tour.
