Eureka!!! After watching that vid again and again I noticed that boat name is called "Glacier Jet." They depart daily from the Knik River which is where I found the image of the Port of Anchorage. Also...here's a big one, "Transportation [to the Glacier, possibly may be Matanuska] is provided from the Alyeska Prince Resort in Girdwood upon request only." This is the place where some people had made assumptions of where they are at. I think it all ties in b/c the glacier climb (assuming it is Matanuska), the walkway over mud flats overlooking the Anchorage skyline, and the Alyeska Resort are all relatively near each other, probably about <100 miles, which is no more than 2.5 hours by taxi. I am assuming should they be at the Alyeska Resort, their next possible clue may be to get to the glacier place, and climb.

...Just my opinion.

Check the summary on page 1. We're following the work of Peach, who was following the work of Colby.

But here she does:

normal tar 13 legs 12 roadblocks
this tar 11 legs 11 roadblocks, hence we are missing one, so IMO there is 2 roadblocks on the final leg

michael · « **Reply #283 on:** January 16, 2008, 10:14:17 PM »

Yeah, I think the one of Rachel with the clue to her forehead is the one where all the teams are bunched because shes wearing what she is wearing when running out of the cab.

thatsfunny, I am giving you the same advice I have to several other newbies. Read all the threads back to July 1 before you decide to comment. Frequently things you say will conflict with previously available knowledge if you fail to do this. In your case, "I think it all ties in b/c the glacier climb (assuming it is Matanuska), the walkway over mud flats overlooking the Anchorage skyline, and the Alyeska Resort are all relatively near each other, probably about <100 miles, which is no more than 2.5 hours by taxi. " is kind of redundant with the information from months ago that Girdwood and the Alyeska Resort are about 37 miles from Anchorage International Airport (which is about 5 miles from downtown Anchorage). Put your own differential on for the mud flats. The time should be less than one hour by taxi.

So, it looks like all three Roadblockers are stumped by the second Speed Bump board.

It must be a hard question.

Who gets it first?

Chateau d If · « **Reply #287 on:** January 16, 2008, 10:29:00 PM »

This shot was taken here (thanks to Peach) between 8:50 and 9:30 am (assumes July 29th).

I'll hazzard a guess and say Christina finishes first, she's smart -- no offense to Rachel but we have seen that she isn't very bright and we can see in the preview Nick having problems.

wow great job Chateau!

puddin · « **Reply #289 on:** January 16, 2008, 10:47:39 PM »

Do you really think Nick saying that hes having a hard time really means hes not doing so good at the RB? Christina is praying so you think shes have an easier time than Nick? Rachel is holding the clue against her forehead thinking? But I do have to say that Asians are smart, my bf's kids are half Asian and man can they put 2 & 2 together fast, it just comes easy for them.

anyway..

This makes no sense? are you saying that shes running to what we think is the final bunched up RB? Do you think she stopped her sprint to put her jacket on? She might have taken her jacket off at the RB at some point but on then off again? I just don't think so, this sprint must be to somewhere esle.

Ah...I'm afraid you have just witnessed one of my many moments of being lost in a trance, going aloof, and making myself look somewhat resourceful. Eh..you'll find that a lot with me. I wasn't trying to prove anyone wrong, but more so prove to myself something, which I have no clue what it is. No worries..I'm adapting myself into reading from the beginning first- one of the many reasons why I get marked off in school.

haha You got that right..darn AP classes...Also, I'm not that great with the 21st century internet lingo so I don't really get what your acronyms mean (ie lmao, or rofl, or everything else people use). I just know "lol," though over the several years I've been on forums it has come to mean "I acknowledge your statement, though it was not by any means hilarious"

No acronym holds any hilarity in it anymore. Lmao is just another misspelling of "Lame-o"

Back on topic guys...

There are two of those large round canvas disks. The first one faces North and is against a structure with two castle like turrets and the other faces South and is against a wooden fence.

Each one has a Speed Bump board at it.

The Cluebox for this Roadblock is at the first one.

A turrent thingy:

Shoot!

Back to the drawing board...

Chateau d If · « **Reply #299 on:** January 17, 2008, 12:32:47 AM »

Rachel takes off the green jacket during her try at the Roadblock. The shot of her pensively holding the Roadblock papers is with out the jacket.

If the Roadblock consists of answering questions at each Speed Bump board then shes got one down and one to go in this shot.

And is sweating out the completion of the second part here
