Unfortunately, no computer to update.

So fly by update:

Fly to Calgary, do a memorization task at the YYC airport, RB I believe. Courtney (of Courtney and Taylor) gets it quickly, the other two are struggling.

Clue: Fly to Mount Faber and search for next clue. C/T get this and move onto next location: Sunshine Village.

Next update:

Sunshine VIllage: RB 2, Skijoring (Dog pulled skis) do two laps properly, then use a sled to do a course. Very easy and straight forward. The teammate who did not do first rb must do this one.

Taylor Courtney finish and as they slide down the gondola, Courtney/Adam are coming up.

Next Clue: Make your way to Banff National Park Administration building.

Next update: All 3 teams doing memory challenge. T/C finish collecting souvenirs, but did not have all items and need to go back. A/C are organized and finished.

I warched the three previous episodes yesterday and when I finiished I had the sensation they were going to win. Didn't know why, but I had that hunch. :)

Also at the beginning of the episode they were the only team to get foreshadowing for a win, so you knew they were the likely winners.

I'm happy for them! Surprised but happy for them!
Wished Taylor and Courtney would have won but it made for for an exciting finale, I was afraid it would be a landslide after the first 20 mins!

Good final task lifted the leg a lot, and more navigation to the final pitstop than you often see these days.  The mountain scenery decent too.  I liked the remark of the team that was asked continually about 'representing' when she replied she just wanted a beer or something.  The third place team played along though and read the script about diversity.

Suggestion for next race theme - race of villains.  Yeh, there's precisely a zero percent chance of that lol.

Leg 11

I've wanted a leg in Banff for some time as it's the only Canadian location that had been visited by other TARs but not TARC. However, when I heard that Banff was the site of the finale, I had fears that this would be similar to the Whistler leg (one of my least favorite legs of all time). The first half of this leg did not assuage my fears, since it looked like Taylor & Courtney would dominate the leg after one task. Thankfully, we had an actual memory task that allowed teams to catch up. I glad that we got an exciting finish that gave us our first M/F team to win TAR.

Courtney after being told about "inform."  :funny:
Adam bonking Courtney with the Go-Pro.  :funny:
That zombie nearly gave me an aneurysm.  :furious:
Courtney wanting a beer.  :funny:

Air Traffic Control: Reminded me of the Confucius task from TAR 19. Glad this task didn't determine the winner, so I liked it.
Skijoring & Slush Cup: Easily the weakest part of the leg. Teams just had to do the tasks. Why was there no time limit?
Souvenir: Ideally for me, I like the Race to end with the final 3 competing in the memory task at the same time. (i.e. TAR 12, 25, 30) This task didn't quite reach that since the edit pretty much forgot Dylan & Kwame. At the same time, I'm glad that we had two teams in strong contention, the task allowed a team to catch, and that this task was the one that decided the winner. It was very much an expansion of the Hong Kong search from TAR 30, and the sheer volume of items teams had to find allowed for some confusion.
(For a finale, there were fewer than normal tasks.)

I'm in mourning. Rooting for Courtney & Adam to win.

Congratulations Courtney & Adam  :cheer:  :conf:

Wish them all the best with their wedding.

4/5

Overall, I did enjoy this season. Here's hoping for season 7.

My hands are quavering at how intense and close this season has been.
COURTNEY & ADAM ALL THE WAYYYYY

And unlike that disastrous Whistler finale in s3, this leg was pretty frickin' awesome, albeit a little short imo.
Banff in all of its Albertan glory <333
Courtney & Adam bottomgoddessing their way to the finale, I'm so glad they won <3
Its always the team that you least expect. Even in s1 T.S/T.J were lagging behind but then T.S. stated that due to his Parkinson's he was well versed with taking notes and memorizing, which helped him ace the provincial flower challenge.

Leg rankings for this season would be
9, 2, 11, 8, 4, 7, 1, 6, 5, 10, 3

For a mountain town finale, this one beat Whistler from season 3, their worst final leg IMO.

This would have been the season for my friend and fellow TAR fan Kurt (who's applied a few years) with that skijoring task :lol: He and his wife do that all the time.

I love how after the memory task, they still had to work for the finish line. Zipline, rafting and running around a golf course and a half.
