Under the Bridge

It's always fun exploring new places, and our jogging group sometimes gives me that opportunity. Today Phillip suggested we try one of his regular routes; part of it goes under the Ironworkers' Memorial Bridge. We started at his house near the PNE, jogged through some neighbourhoods that bordered the freeway, ducked into a skateboard tunnel adjacent to a running track and found ourselves almost at the shoreline of Burrard Inlet. The trail that goes under the bridge is part of the Trans-Canada Trail network.

Believe it or not, this gate did not include the statement "Do not enter".

Looks like I'm wearing a steel structure hat.

This is part of the adventure; discovering a tree fort on the north slope of
Burrard Inlet.

The fog was starting to lift on the return leg of our journey.

And there's the Banister-Landy statue at the site of the former Empire Stadium
on the PNE grounds emerging through the fog.

And finally, here's a taste of the grafitti adorning the skateboard tunnel.
