No man's land


There's a spot in the middle of Nose Hill Park that's so far away from the edges of the hill, that you can't see them. Standing in the middle, right about where that arrow is on the image, you can imagine yourself in the middle of a deserted prairie landscape. All you can see in a 360 degree turn, is a handful of homes on the hill across from you in Edgemont and the very top of the Telus building downtown (which you could convince yourself was a new age grain elevator, or at least the top third of it).

Very strange to know you're in the middle of a city of a million people and can't see the evidence of it.
