Deep Cove Quarry Rock Trail
A great hike because you don't need to spend a whole day on the trail but there is still a nice lookout at the end.

I was visiting Vancouver for the first time. I was there on business and my hotel was in the downtown area. I went for two walks, one the evening before my meetings and two a walk the late afternoon after my meetings. I covered Waterfront Station, Victory Square, Canada Place, Vancouver Lookout/Harbour Centre, Main Vancouver Post Office, Vancouver Art Gallery, Centennial Fountain, and other places. A very nice walk.
It was my first time hiking Mount Seymour and I wasn't disappointed. The view at the end was spectacular and there were lots of good scenery along the way. The only problem was that although it is late July, there is still a lot of snow near the top of the mountain.

This is a good alternative to the overhyped Grouse Grind trail - it's almost the same length, with the same gruelling elevation gain in a relatively short distance.You start on the grind trail, then veer off to the right on the Baden-Powell trail about 10 minutes into it, then start following the BCMC (British Columbia Mountaineering Club) signs until you get to the top...From the top, its just a few minutes on...

Did a nice afternoon ride with my steady and took a few pics along the way ... The purpose was exercise but also to see if I could geotag the photos. Dragged along my Sony Cybershot DSC W-7 camera and Garmin GPSMap 60CSx. I used our iMac and Garmin's Basecamp software to geotag the pics before uploading. Everytrail managed to put them all in the right places!
