The quest

Trout Lake Beach is Vancouver's public water south-east of centre, Vancouver. One hour. Five things on the waterline. No private docks.

Steps

  1. Stay on the public beach at Trout Lake Beach. No private docks.
  2. Walk Trout Lake Beach's waterline until you have a list of five shoreline things.
  3. Turn around. Lifeguard flags, if any, are the boss.

Why this is on the board

Vancouver was built on water whether the skyline admits it or not. Trout Lake Beach (south-east of centre, Vancouver) is a named public edge: five things on the waterline, then you turn around.

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