The quest
Skip the patio. Stand on public ground at Cambie Street Bridge — west sidewalk, above False Creek for the end of the day, then walk out the way you came.
Steps
- Arrive at Cambie Street Bridge — west sidewalk, above False Creek twenty minutes before sunset. Stay on public ground — not a bike lane, not a road deck.
- Watch until the disk is gone. Name three lights that stay on.
- Leave the way you came. Do not climb railings or cut through private docks.
Why this is on the board
Cambie Street Bridge — west sidewalk, above False Creek is one of the spots south of centre, Vancouver where Vancouver 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. Stay on the sidewalk / bike-adjacent walkway. Do not stand in the cycle lane or on the road deck. The rail is a drop to water. Wind is real. This is a commuting bridge — keep kids' hands if you bring older children; it is not a stroller quest.
