We Visited Maple Ridge, BC (and this is why you should too)

[@mattblom3990]

As someone who grew up in Maple Ridge there are some better spots than Golden Ears which is annoyingly busy. Cliff Park in East Maple Ridge I think is best, though parking can be difficult (the lot is small). There are also Rolley and Hayward Lake though they can get quite busy too...Still not Golden Ears level mania.

Congrats on refinding MR. I have downtown friends who have been to 20 countries but never east of North Rd.

Thanks for the interesting video.

Agreed about goldenears. I basically only come on the off season. 😅

[@youtubebydoug]

The only time to visit golden ears is the off season. In a month or two the place is going to be crazy

I love maple ridge but imagine driving from there to port Coquitlam just to get to school because that is my everyday pain

[@caitlynotto132]

[@youtubebydoug]

[@caitlynotto132]

KZbin By Doug I have lived here for 10 years, and I searched up “nice lakes in maple ridge” because I wanted to go to a nice lake 😅👍🏼

I hiked to the falls a few years ago when I was there.

[@youtubebydoug]

I don't know if I would consider it a hike :P but it was a beautiful walk and I definitely had fun going back to the falls

At the start of the video you were driving down the place Where I live and I saw my house there

Nice. Any business? Spot you'd recommend?

[@mattblom3990]

@@youtubebydoug Cliff Park as I wrote above is great for a little walk and photo op. As far as eateries we don't have a ton that aren't chains. The best food by far is Big Daddy's Pizza. Not really an "eat in" place but excellent if you want a pizza to go. They smoke all their own meat and the toppings are fantastic. I'd recommend the Double Double or Rajin Cajun for something unique but addictive.
