I think it is possible that that park could be the Anchorage Golf Course but I can't make the virtual tour open for me...can someone check and see what you think please?
 

There is also a tram at Aleska Hotel and that might capture an elevated view...off to see if there is water nearby there...

I'd hate to think this is the final task near the finish line!

ETA: this is when Ron cheers "the stress is on"

In a final Amazing Race leg unlike any homestretch before it, the Racers are surprised to learn upon checkout that their next flight is their last for the entire race: the entire leg, all the way through the finish line, will play out in the city, the wilderness, by the ocean, on glaciers, and in the national parks of Alaska.

One often combative Team comes together, while one usually cohesive Team clashes.

One Team misreads a vital clue. Will this lead to the Team's downfall?

After 10 cities, 4 continents, and nearly 30,000 miles, who will cross the finish line first and win the one million dollar prize?

Apskip, I admit defeat, you were right!

and OK:

One often combative Team comes together (RON AND CHRIS), while one usually cohesive Team clashes.(RACHEL AND TK)
One Team misreads a vital clue (DON AND NICK). Will this lead to the Team's downfall?

anyone else agree that Ron and Chris are the "team that comes together" since they are the only team left that has ever been "combative" with each other.

I'm so excited, most unspoiled finale EVER!

Michael  Yes that has to be Ron & CHristina.

The team that comes apart, would appear to be Nic & Don.

ANd the teams that screws up a clue is also Nic & Don.

And Apskip now does his "I told you so, Michael".

I love how you word that.  The End city would Alaska.  Thats one damn big city let me tell you.

And if that golf course is the finnish line, that will be the first finnish line I have been at.  My brother likes to kick my ass at golf (which he does over and over, and over again.  YOu can even play in winter, you use bright orange colored balls.

Errrrr......it was my info from my co-workers mother that first mentioned Alaska as the final destination. 

Quote
*At first I took that to mean that alaska was on their way to the final destination.  But I asked her if she meant that Alaska is
Possibly the final destination.  **She said:
"i think so, she said she only remembers him mentioning 3 boats (not sure if it was 3 boats besides his or including his)."

I will admit though, even I didn't believe it.   :lol:


We saw the glaciers just I heard!   :yess:

and we saw the speed boat trip up the twenty mile river just as I heard!  :yess:


Who the heck is going to win this thing now!!  :jumpy:
