The quest
50 minutes in Michael Park (north-east of centre, Vancouver): leave the parking lot behind, pick a bench, listen.
Steps
- Enter Michael Park at a public gate.
- Walk until you have left the parking lot behind. Sit on one bench.
- Name two non-traffic sounds. Leave by the same gate.
Why this is on the board
Parks like Michael Park (north-east of centre, Vancouver) are how Vancouver 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.
