This is a cap from TAR20 intro, which I'm guessing is Hawaii, do we have a location genius that can track this exact location down?? It could be important  :duno:
I cannot get the right angle to be sure ( :gaah: ), but I think it might be the cliffs at Kualoa Ranch, which was used for Jurassic Park, Lost, etc.
 
http://www.kualoa.com/about/
 
Maybe this was noted earlier, but the helicopter in the caps thread is from Makani Kai Helicopters. 
http://www.makanikai.com/helicoptercharters.html

I looked more closely at the area, and pinpointed the location of the intro cap shot as Kahana Bay, which is on the windward/eastern side of Oahu. Kualoa Ranch is on the other side of the ridge, just to the south.
Kualoa Ranch is a private 4,000 acre property, totally stunning to look at, and historically significant to the Hawaiian people, so certainly another candidate for a finale location. 

Boston Jen , you are spot on!  The settlement is Kaaawa (who said there is no word with three consecutive a's?).  This shot was taken here:

Saw the preview. no way, someone gets turned back at the finish line?

That has never happened before.

First of all, a team can only get their next clue from a roadblock after completing that roadblock. So I'm guessing that whichever team it is, they accidentally stumbled onto the finish line (perhaps on their way to the final roadblock)

In most seasons, the roadblock in the final leg comes after the detour. Oftentimes, it's right before the finish line and if that's the case, it's most often some sort of a memory task.

Yeah, I think it's more likely that team stumbled on the finish line instead of downright not doing the roadblock.


 

Bring on the 21!

I know I'm not good at this and probably wrong.. but could the finish line be near Paiko Lagoon?

Well, there's always a first time for everything in TAR:  a Co-ed team winning the race - and a first woman - (TAR3); a first time an all female team won (TAR17); a double elimination (TAR19); two U-Turned teams spared elimination (this season); a team last in a NEL who completed SB, RB and Detour and won the next leg (TAR16).  I always thought (or dreamt) that one day, one team would reach the finish line and Phil would receive them with a "however" due to failed a task in that leg.  Seems it's the first time for this too. :groan:

This is the Secret Beach at Kualoa Resort.

http://www.kualoa.com/locations/secret-island/

If you watch the vid you will see a glimpse of a thatched hut and a distant flat topped island that all looks similar to our caps.

The map lets you zoom in very nicely too...could this be it?

So the Pit Stop is very close to that helio shot of Kaaawa we identified earlier!

Phil said somebody didn't read the clue correctly, so I assume The finish line and roadblock clue both on the same clue?
Or they happen to stumple onto the finish line.

Davechel ' We can only beat ourselves'
Brenchel ' Davechel is the team to beat' Other 2 is irrelvant

Go Brenchel go

Oh and
