The quest

Be at Silver Birch Beach (south-east of centre, Toronto) twenty minutes before the disk drops. Stay until it is gone. Leave with one colour that is not orange.

Steps

  1. Arrive at Silver Birch Beach 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

Silver Birch Beach is one of the spots south-east of centre, Toronto where Toronto 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.
