The quest

Walk a single loop of W.O. Mitchell Park. Sit until you can name two non-traffic sounds, then leave by the same gate.

Steps

  1. Enter W.O. Mitchell Park at a public gate.
  2. Walk until you have left the parking lot behind. Sit on one bench.
  3. Name two non-traffic sounds. Leave by the same gate.

Why this is on the board

Parks like W.O. Mitchell Park (north-west of centre, Calgary) are how Calgary was laid out for people who do not have a cottage. One loop, one bench, two sounds — the city used as it was meant to be used.

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