Here are the teams lined up for the start.  They are standing at the eastern end of the Colorado Street Bridge.

New Yorkers know that 51st St. and 5th Avenue is St. Patrick's Cathedral on one side of that Avenue.

A blog post which claims a sighting at Amboise, just down the road from Chenonceaux.

I don't think I've put this up yet. 

The location of the eleven 2013 Ford Escapes that Teams will drive to LAX is La Casita del Arroyo.



It's about a 1,000 foot run from where they read the first clue after the rappel.

Chateau, this is consistent with the sightings in De Wallen area.  It's about 1,8 kms. from Centraal Station in the same direction.
