This is another area that has been made to look larger with camera angles. Walking through this part of the forest is a leisurely 20 seconds, and the long shot of the characters walking (frame 9) is a 10 second walk to the left around a small trench.

This has been the most difficult photo location so far. In the time since filming the forest has continued to have trees fall, grow, and change. There are still some unique trees with bark missing or white patches so I hope I have done the framing justice here.

While taking photos here I spotted a coyote nearby. The Lower Mainland is home to an estimated 2,000-3,000 urban coyotes, which moved into the area in the 1980s. Seeing wild animals in the Vancouver area isn't uncommon, so please be aware while in the forested areas you visit.

I often visit a location more than once to see it during different seasons/lighting. For this area I visited 2 months apart and it was wild to see the differences. If you are going to visit any of the locations, you can rest assured it will be beautiful at any time.

The art displayed here is 'Ascending Faith' and is carved out of yellow cedar by Stz’uminus artist John Marston (Qap’u’luq). Marston learned the craft from his parents, and Cowichan master carver Simon Charlie. He has pieces on display in many public buildings around Vancouver.

This is a location that I found with the direct help of George and Jayden via cameo. By the time cameos happened I had spent hours looking at parks, so I was just hoping for any info. George was able to tell me the crew put the swings up in the same cemetery as the Shelby scenes.

This location is to the right of the entrance near 1505 Lillooet Road. It's a small area on the side of the road, and can be recognized by the public art on display and the bench nearby.

The Lamplighter is named after John Clough, who was Vancouver’s one and only lamplighter. John used to light the coal oil street lamps of Gastown in 1887, but in the same year the city introduced electric lights. The Clough Club next-door is also named after him.

Currently an active pub, this establishment also offers a lot of local history. It was the first parlour to receive a beer licence in British Columbia after prohibition was lifted, and the first pub to serve alcohol to women in the area.

This location is near both Blood Alley and the Agency entrance gate. The building started out as The Dominion Hotel in 1899 with the Rubinowitz's department store on the ground floor, before being turned into The Lamplighter Pub in 1925.
