I found the best way to learn the city when I moved here in 2006 -- well before in-car navigation and GPS-enabled smartphones were a given -- was to have a paper map in the glovebox, and then just drive around randomly and then try to learn how to get back based on what the street names/numbers were.

That Sarcee Trail split definitely gave me a "What the hell just happened?" moment when I took it and ended up near Spy Hill.
