Clem, I presume you are talking about Vancouver, B.C. I was there several summers ago and "found" a sundial quite by accident on the beach. Its been awhile I am going from memory. I haven't seen this dial in the NASS directory so maybe you can get a good description if you find it. It is on the Boardwalk on the main bay on the west side of the city. I forget what the bay is called but It is where they have the fireworks contest in the summer. The dial is cylindrical equatorial dial made of bronze with a compensating gnomon. If I had a map of Vancouver I could probably locate it within a half mile. Maybe someone else has noticed this dial and can give you some more info. If you are talking about Vancouver, WA I can't help you. Bob 33N 116W San Diego
