Location

Vancouver, in a back alley between 13th and 14th around Collinwood

Participants

Plans

it is only a few blocks from my route work\home, I'll pass by around 6/7 pm Wijnland

Expedition

GeRCunderscore4

I just randomly checked the location today, and it happened to be very, very close to where I live. I saved a copy of the map to my phone (Google maps doesn't work on it), cycled over, and found the spot in a back alleyway. Robbat2 seems to have marked the spot, thanks for that, and there was an elderly couple nearby who mentioned that two others had been by. I took some pictures and come back home. I should probably mention that this is my first.

Tracklog

Photos

Some else had already marked the spot.
