The quest

Skip the patio. Stand on public ground at Lookout for the end of the day, then walk out the way you came.

Steps

  1. Arrive at Lookout twenty minutes before sunset. Stay on public ground — not a bike lane, not a road deck.
  2. Watch until the disk is gone. Name three lights that stay on.
  3. Leave the way you came. Do not climb railings or cut through private docks.

Why this is on the board

Lookout is one of the spots south-west of centre, Calgary where Calgary actually faces the sky. You get the last colour of the day and a few minutes of standing still a patio will not sell you.

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