|  | | | A couple of shots taken in a construction site at burnaby mountain. There were a few really pretty locations lit only by moonlight ... but the pictures turned out to be totally black.
Attempted to climb the crane too, but failed rather miserably. The view from even halfway up was outstanding, though. Anyone wants to join me on a second attempt at the summit ?

| | | | Cool pictures, I like #2 the best. What was it that hindered you from getting to the summit?

| | | | probably vertigo, the fear of falling 4 stories to my death ... I guess I'm generally more paranoid when I'm alone.

| | | | That's right. Hey, give me a PM if you're intending on climbing it anytime.
About security, it should not be too much of a problem. Once you've gotten beyond the first floor, the crane is almost completely shrouded in darkness (look at the second last pic). Going in the day is obviously not an option, though.

| | | | Plenty high enough, when your up there the wind is whistling and the crane starts to slowly turn, it feels like someones got a grip on your balls. But damm its a great view. T.L.

| | | | By the most bizarre coincidence, I bumped into the crane scaling gang (above) right after exploring these apartment towers.
Good fun.

| | | | Jizzy colors. Finding that rendering incandescent-lit scenery from ugly yellow/orange into complementary green-red to be one of the best ways to pretty-ize a poorly lit photo.
Sounds like SFU's got a lot more exploration sites on the way with its UniverCity development plan. Does it have steam tunnels?

| | | | I enjoyed the trip. now got those photo's into the location Database!
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me, and it'll happen to you, too! |
