The quest

45 minutes in Riley Park (south-east of centre, Vancouver): leave the parking lot behind, pick a bench, listen.

Steps

  1. Enter Riley Park at a public gate.
  2. Walk until you have left the parking lot behind. Sit on one bench.
  3. Name two non-traffic sounds. Leave by the same gate.

Why this is on the board

Parks like Riley Park (south-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 park. Watch the field edges for balls. Leave if a private event has closed the grass.
