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