DWWS Home
Expedition Everest Challenge September 27, 2008
 

Get Ready for the Yeti...
You should have received your first sample clue last week to help you prepare for the long trek ahead to the Forbidden Mountain.  Did you get the answer right? 

Sample Clue 1 Answer: The Lion King
Explanation – Under the title, Duka La Filimu, is the phrase “Last film before safari.” The last film in the list of film names in the clue is the answer - The Lion King.

Time is of the essence...
This is a chip-timed event and will need to wear a ChampionChip to record your time.  The cumulative finish time of the 5K, obstacle course, and scavenger hunt will determine winners.  Purchase your very own commemorative ChampionChip for Disney's Endurance Series, where every stride is a victory! 

Awards will be distributed to the Men’s and Women’s Champions, Men’s Team Champion, Women’s Team Champion, and Co-Ed Team Champion. There will not be any age group awards, but every finisher will receive a medal.

Do you have a team uniform?
Disney's Wide World of Sports® can create a customized shirt for you and your teammate to wear on your trek.  If you order now, then your shirt will be waiting for you at Base Camp (packet pick-up) when you arrive!  Select one of the available graphics and enter in your team name for a personalized team uniform.  Purchase today!

Study your route...
Your journey begins with a 5K run inside Disney's Animal Kingdom® Theme Park and the surrounding areas. At the conclusion of the 5K you will encounter an obstacle course where climbing, crawling and balance are the keys to successfully navigating the challenges. After the obstacle course you will receive a passport as you head back inside the Park. The clues contained in the passport will help solve the mysteries of the Scavenger Hunt. The Scavenger Hunt will test your weary mind but those who complete the journey will celebrate with their fellow trekkers at the Post Race Party in the Dinoland U.S.A.® Area.  Check out the final race instructions to be really prepared.  They will be posted online on Monday September 8.


Clues to discover and challenges to conquer
How did you do on your first sample clue?  These sample clues should prepare your mind for the kinds of tasks that await you on your journey...a location, a clue and a photo.  Good luck!

Location:  In an alcove to the right as you enter Discovery Island from the main entrance.

Clue:  If you “thirst” for a clue, add in what you can drink beneath this bird house to fill in the spaces below:

___ ___ N ___ R

*Hint - trekkers who find the birdhouse will notice a water fountain underneath.

Answer:  You're guide will send you the answer in your next letter.
