Made a wintertime SLC finale Leg :<3
• X (X Int'l Airport) to Salt Lake City, Utah, USA (Salt Lake City Int'l Airport)
• Salt Lake City (Gilgal Sculpture Garden)
• Salt Lake City (DPS Ski Salon)
• Park City (Canyons Resort)
• Salt Lake City (Seagull Monument, Temple Square)
• Syracuse (Antelope Island State Park - Bridger Bay)
• Salt Lake City (Stansbury Island)
Tasks -->Show contentIn this Detour, teams chose between Slope or Sleuth. In Slope, teams must complete a ski slalom course. They had to pass between each set of flags on an expert slope in less than 45 seconds to receive their next clue. ("Slope is physically demanding, but teams with great agility could breeze ahead.) In Sleuth, teams received a map and piece of paper in their clue with navigation directions to locate one of three thermos hidden under the immense amount of snow. Teams had to figure out they had to use their skis to measure end-to-end in the exact beelines the paper says. Once teams uncover a thermos, they must open it to find their next clue. ("Sleuth" is a thought-provoking task, but teams who are quick with their wits may find themselves uncovering a lead.) In the final RB, one team member must arrange eleven cube crates with silhouettes of past items and locations on shelves requesting certain tasks (DT, RB, RI) to receive their final clue. However, although a shelf may have more than one answer, there is only one group of silhouettes that fulfill all eleven shelves.
Additional tasks
• Upon arriving at Gilgal Sculpture Garden, teams had to find a grasshopper (referring to a literal statue). Nearby would be an unbodied clue box.
• At DPS Ski Salon, teams had to pick up two pairs of skis, ski poles, and mittens along with their next clue
• After the Detour, teams had to travel by taxi to the "miracle of the gulls". They had to figure out the obscure phrase referred to the seagull statue at Temple Square emphasizing a Mormon folklore.
• After the Roadblock, teams had to steer a speedboat 16 miles across the Great Salt Lake to Stansbury Island where they will make their way by foot to the Finish Line.[/size]
