This episode has two locations.
1. 'The Shore'
Barnet Marine Park: Travel east on Hastings Street. Keep left on Barnet Highway, and follow signs for the park.

Google Earth Map provided by Kent Sponagle.

Travel Tips: This location is very close to Simon Fraser University, and can be easily combined with a visit there. There is limited parking; try to park as far east as you can. If you find you need to cross a metal bridge, you've gone the wrong way. This site is gorgeous--it's amazing to check out the view that the families had.

2. Roslin's Vision Boat
The boat is located at the Plaza of Nations: 750 Pacific Blvd, Vancouver, Dock B

Google Earth map provided by Kent Sponagle.

The vision boat cruised around the Burrard Inlet as shown on the map. Please view the boat from the upper part of the dock. The public can charter this boat, but it is expensive and mostly for groups of 100 or more.

This episode contains four locations.
1. New Caprica City
Go to No. 8 and Blundell Road in Richmond, BC, and follow Blundell west until it ends. GPS coordinates: 49.156829, -123.043334

Location Notes: This location can be difficult to find. Thanks to Bart McLeroy for the photos! He found the location by putting the coordinates above into his GPS. It's now an industrial area, but it is possible to see some sand if you look closely.

Behind the Scenes

Below are photos of the area off of Blundell Road, dressed as New Caprica City for several episodes, including 'Precipice.' Photos are copyright Maurice Woodworth, and are not to be re-used without his written consent.

2. Breeder's Canyon:
Upper Coquitlam River Park, 1791 Pipeline Road, Coquitlam.

Travel Tip: Park next to the fence and enter the park at the model plane area. If club members are present, be careful to ask so that you do not interfere with their planes. Head left and walk into the forest; the location comes up quickly (you'll reach the river).

Roslin’s Doctor’s Office, Waterfall Building, 1540 West 2nd Avenue, Vancouver

Travel Tips: Used in many episodes, The Waterfall Building was Roslin's doctor's office in both the miniseries and Epiphanies (in flashback). Parking is an issue here--there is a gravel, pay lot just across from the building that is best. There is also, appropriately, a Starbucks nearby!

Travel Tip: An absolute not-to-be-missed location in Burnaby, Simon Fraser University appears in many episodes. Finding a map on campus can be difficult, so use an online map like the one at the beginning of this post to help you plot your route through campus (or bring it up on your mobile device while you're there).

We recommend parking in front of the West Mall Centre (aka the museum at Delphi!) as the best way to access all the sites at SFU (see photo, click to enlarge).
