    Can you ID this area?


    Can anyone ID the area where this picture was taken?

    I have my own ideas, but I'm not that familiar with the exact spot, and thought someone here might know it better.

    Photo is at: http://twitpic.com/2i38ue

    If you run your mouse over the top right of the photo you can click on the menu to see it in full size.

    Background: Wil Wheaton from Star Trek TNG fame is in Vancouver filming another episode of Eureka and he posted this photo this morning. This is where he is filming today.

    Jim...

    That is up Burrard Inlet looking out towards the Iron Workers Memorial bridge I am pretty sure.

    I am believe the pic would be taken from either North Burnaby getting close to Port Moody.

    Yes indeed! Been following him on his blog and now Twitter for about a year now.

    This is his second trip to Vancouver to film an episode of Eureka. His first was episode 4 of the current season. He's also been on The Big Bang Theory twice last season and probably will be on again as he seems to be in tight with the production people and cast.

    He also has a part in a web production called "The Guild" - season 3 with the creator Felicia Day - who is also up here filming with him on Eureka.

    That's what I thought - but I didn't want to influence anyone here. I was hoping that someone might have a more exact location.

    Celebrity Stalker??? [] I don't have exact GPS coordinates...but if you look in the left side of the picture that "white thing" is the old McD's barge from Expo. I have boated past there but couldn't tell ya how to sneak in on him on shore.



    Not a Wheaton "fan" (nor do I dislike him) but he was pretty funny on Big Bang Theory; fit right in to that hilarious show.

    Must be my military background?

    I believe that picture was taken on ‘Stoney Beach’, Barnet Marine Park looking west! Within a few feet of N49 17.538 W122 55.518

    Is that exact enough? [:I]

    Charlie: I just checked Google Earth - I think you nailed it!

    That "military background" - let me guess: CIA, NSA?
