Time: Afternoon, Saturday 30 July 2005
1. Crew sighted.
2. Teams rumoured to be around for the weekend.
3. Bubbles442 got some news from his/her supervisors.
4. There are five teams left at this point.
5. A team flew in from Chicago on NW1792, departing 9.00am and arriving in St. Paul at 10.34am, then departing again at 1.32pm and arriving 4.58pm in Montreal.
6. Other teams flew in through Toronto, on AC418 departing 4.00pm, arriving 5.10pm in Montreal. Not much difference there.
7. Flight from Toronto urged to leave on time as "crew was on board".

Of this information, item 5 is the bugaboo for me. Because how could that team do the all Toronto tasks and catch a flight that lands in Chicago 30 to 60 before 9 am? And WHY would they take a 2-connection flight to get to Montreal when there are so many direct flights from Toronto to Montreal?
I think this team may have arrived from the sequester location.

Hey, guys, I'm just stealing a minute or two. And how about this:
Teams arrive at Arnold's Green Meadow Ranch near Absarokee between 3 and 5PM on July 28. This has been a long two or three days and we are now aiming for a demanding final two legs so TPMB give the teams a 36 HOUR PIT STOP. Thus the teams will be leaving on the early morning hours of July 30. They must drive to Billings Airport where they could catch the 6:30AM Northwest flight via Minneapolis to Toronto. The first teams arrive there at 1:14PM.But do nothing else but stay at the airport to catch a flight directly to Montral. If our info is correct they are seen catching Air Canada flight 418 to Montreal which leaves at 4:00 PM. Arriving in Montreal they have time to complete various tasks and end up at a pit stop which is Non-elimination (of course) and someone else loses their duds (Bransens?? Girls at the log roll are all down to tank tops and black pants).
The following day is the day of days. They start off with task perhaps in Montreal, then catch flight back to Toronto (AC leaves hourly on the hour). Complete tasks in Toronto, get to the jet boats and the Niagara Rive gorge. Up to Goat Island, get final clue to race to Davis State Park for the final matt.
It bothers me if they would spend most of the day July 29 travelling to Toronto doing tasks (when were they spotted down by the docks?) get to a pit stop. Then going to Montreal in the afternoon of July 30; July 31: complete tasks in Montreal and then fly BACK to Toronto to do more stuff there and then get to Niagara Falls. One very long day.
Oh well, back to the suitcases!
NiagaraFalls:
I just can't see it guys. I think Toronto has to be in the middle of the two of them. It just HAS to. Why would they go to Toronto to Montreal which is north, then back THROUGH Toronto to Niagara Falls? I mean....it has to go one way or the other.
Montreal-Toronto-Niagara
or (which I dont think it is, and am pretty sure it isnt) Niagara-Toronto-Montreal
Chateau d If:
Hey GMan! Aren't you supposed to be at an airport somewhere? We are struggling to come up with a sequence as you would have provided by now!
About the start day for the Leg, I think the Montana ranch spoiler specified that the teams left for Billings on the next day.
Here is another piece of the spoiler pile that I think is suspicious

we were in toronto downtown and we saw two of the groups getting a route info from a ice cream stand, there were 2 groups that went by both groups of 4. One four hot girls and the other a familly. The sign said for them to go to boston
--- End quote ---
because
1) the "four hot girls" it was probably the G sisters (eliminated already)
2) the "family" was either the Blacks or the Gaghans
3) I don't buy the argument that the "four hot girls" could be the three B's + Megan because "there were 2 groups that went by" really indicated that they were in their distinct groups separated by time and space with orbiting cameraman and audio man for each.
So I think these were decoy teams. And do we know on which day this was seen?

Somewhere ,I think maybe Hi-Fi posted a sighting of the Gaghans in Toronto but got the feeling that was a made-up sighting . Not impossible that we had Decoys running through Toronto /Montreal because it sure looks like one was run through Niagara too , maybe to divert attention from the real teams being filmed at the Gorge ?
