2022.2.20. Capilano River + Stanley Park

2/20, Sunday. Partly sunny. Took the bus via 2nd Narrow Bridge, change towards Grouse Mountain. There were 3 boys in ski jackets catching the same bus. We got off at Cleveland Park (part of Capilano River Regional Park. Visited Cleveland Dam, only the outside. Odd, not much water spill today. Capilano Lake is placid. No view of snow-capped mountains, so not as pretty as the lakes to the east, like Pitt Lake, Alouette Lake.
Walked down to the hatchery (closed). The river here is pretty enough. Plenty trails here. A couple of foot bridges cross the narrow river which join the trails on both banks.

Took the bus back to downtown, via Lions Bridge. Walked back into Stanley Park. Looped around the SE part of the park. Quite a lot of people today. Views of snowy mountains to the north, and skyscrapers to the south. Very pretty. With enough clouds, that we saw a faint rainbow for a long time.

Walked a lot today. Exhausted.
