Lay Down Your Burdens Part II

8/7/2011

This episode has two 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

Behind the Scenes

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

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.

2. Nuked Caprica Forest
Capilano Park, 3735 Capilano Road,  North Vancouver

Travel Tips: Park in the Cleveland Dam parking lot. You'll be able to see 'The Lions,' the mountains used as 'the gates of Hera' in the Kobol arc from there. Cross the Cleveland Dam bridge (a site from 'The Plan') and you'll see a path on the left leading up. Walk up the path and right about where it begins to turn you'll see a wooden post with a small, yellow sign on it. Enter the woods here (there's an obvious path). Screen-matching is very difficult in this park, but we believe we've been successful with a few in the Kobol arc. :)

This is mostly a flashback episode, but since there is new footage of the location we decided to include it.

2. Kara's cell
The Waterfall Building, 1540 West 2nd Avenue, Vancouver

Travel Tip: The photo above is Kara's actual apartment! Parking is difficult here. There is a small gravel pay lot across from the building (near the train tracks) that is the most convenient. Appropriately, there's a Starbucks nearby!

This episode has four locations.
1. Cylon firing squad

The 'Pergamus Flats' were a private and active rock quarry. This is not a site that's possible to visit, which is too bad as how much fun would it have been to throw Anne down the hill like Roslin did to Zarek? ... well, OK, just fun for me. :) This is also the site of Kara's crash landing in 'You Can't Go Home Again.'

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

Google Earth map provided by Kent Sponagle.

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).

2. Kara's Cell
The Waterfall Building, 1540 West 2nd Avenue, Vancouver

Travel Tips: Kara's NC prison cell was actually in the same complex as her Caprica apartment--the Waterfall Building. This is a photo of the actual apartment. Parking can be an issue here, but there is a gravel pay lot slightly northwest of the building (across the street). Appropriately, there's a Starbucks nearby.

Be sure to check out the parts of the Miniseries, Black Market, Downloaded and Daybreak that were filmed here!
