I predict this is the context of the quote

Team #3 Member: Look behind you!
Team #4 Member 1: Look!
Team #4 Member 2: This gives us a Beacon of Hope.

Pit Stop Location maybe? :hoot: It's located at the Thanksgiving Square

Very likely for a Pit Stop or a clue box.

Is there any chance teams will go to Castlewellan Forest Park's peace hedge maze, one of the largest permanent mazes in the world? I don't think I remember seeing a hedge maze task on TAR.

Oh yeah! :oh What caused Dustin & Kandice's disappointing elimination. I didn't remember seeing it on TV, but I visualized TAR solving a hedge maze during one of the TAR6-10 seasons. Thanks.

RachelLeVega,

Your assessment of what caused Dustin and Kandice's elimination at the end of AR10, ep. 12 is not accurate. Here's the way I remember it:
1. Dustin and Kandice missed the sign for entry into North Africa Horse Ranch and Olive Farm and finished 4th in ep. 11, being saved by an NEL but receiving the Marked for Elimination penalty requiring them to finish first in leg 12 or suffer a 30 minute penalty.
2. Dustin and Kandice got a lead by finishing first in the ROADBLOCK in Casablanca to eat a barbecued ground camel burger, but this got wiped away by a bunch for the flight to Barcelona that all 4 teams got.
3. The maze was the first task in Barcelona and Dustin/Kandice and did not lose significant time versus other teams there.
4. On the DETOUR Dustin and Kandice made a huge mistake. They chose the plodding DETOUR Lug It where no luck was possible instead of the DETOUR Lob It, the infamous recreation of the La Tomatina Festival, which was all luck. That may have given them an opportunity to get ahead by up to 30 minutes.
5. Dustin and Kandice not only didn't finish first, they finished last. This eliminated them on reaching the pit stop on Montjuic.

This was a great team who make one decision of omission in not double-checking the 4 mile distance from Cafe Pirgola for finding the sign and one decision of commission in their choice of the non-luck DETOUR.
