I have no experience with that office, so I don't know how friendly they are to public record requests (they obviously supplied something to the reporter). "tasks in the desert"--back to Pahrump, perhaps?

Since the beginning location was tipped off by finding the filmimg permit for the Los Angeles River, I've tried digging around the Nevada Film Commission, the Las Vegas and Nevada government websites and now the Clark County government website (didn't think of them earlier) and I can't find any online records of filming locations or street closures. I'm not saying the information isn't there somewhere, but I couldn't find it. :( It would certainly help identify what the detour and roadblock might have been.
Since we've more or less confirmed that filming was done at the Welcome to Las Vegas sign, I'll point out that there isn't much there except the sign and it's in the median of a busy highway. See http://lasvegassignphotos.com/ for some photos of the sign. A few show the surroundings. My suspicion is that Phil probably did a stand up to introduce the location once the racers opened the envelopes and learned the final location. I expect that no detour or roadblock took place there - possibly that could have been the location of the first clue box.

Well i agree with you about that the vegas sign was probably a stand up; but usually when Phil does a stand up for the final clue; its usually kind of done at the finish line. I suspect a detour or roadblock stand up because usually TAR tries to do those type of stand ups in front of monuments or other good areas (or occasionally at/near the actual area of a task)
