White Ajah Winter Carnival - The Amazing Race!

[eternalangel]

Yay! I'm up again!

 

I remember the beginner reader about Balto, but I had no idea it was a movie. I may watch it because it sounds interesting!

[Rhea]

Move your team! Answer this question...

 

True or False - Huskies make great watchdogs?

 

[eternalangel]

True.

[Niniel]

Then I guess false. Lol

 

Amazing that I was right about the otter. I rarely watch tv but I watched a program about animals maybe three years ago and something in it clearly stayed in my head.

[Rhea]

False!

 

Huskies are not one-person dogs—they're unsuspicious and friendly to strangers. This can be charming, but it's not very helpful when you’re looking for a canine sentry!

 

Tina & Elgee move ahead! Their dogs clearly in it to win it! They've pulled in to Golovin for a much needed nap!

 

[Rhea]

Where are the rest of the teams?

 

[Rhea]

Mush!!!

 

 

Fill in the blank and move your team!

 

When the edge of a glacier advances into the ocean the pieces that break off are what we call an ________ ?

[Pralaya]

Iceberg?

[Sooh]

Ice calving?

[Elgee]

False!

At least I knew that answer! And about icebergs ... lol

[Elgee]

Ice calving?

 

Ice calving is the process, with icebergs (or crevasse wall breakaways) being the result.

 

Yay for National Geographic! lol

[Sooh]

Yeah, but Pral had already said iceberg

 

Also the question was confusing me.

[Rhea]

Pral's team moves ahead!

 

"Glaciers "flow" or "creep" outward under their own weight like a viscous fluid.

When the edge of a glacier advances into the ocean the pieces that break off

are what we call icebergs."

 

 

Careful!!! 

[Rhea]

OK....put your thinking caps on Mushers! I hope your brains aren't frozen!

 

To move your team answer this question!

 

In the Wheel of Time series a Snow Goose is what? 

[eternalangel]

A ship? I can't remember fully.

[Rhea]

I will accept Ship!

 

The Snow Goose carried Moiraine Damodred, Lan Mandragoran, Perrin Aybara, Loial, and Faile Bashere from Remen, in Altara, to the city of Illian.

 

Elgee...you missed it! edternalangel moves her team!

 

[Rhea]

The teams are slowly making their way across the frozen tundra!

 

Whoever get this one right will move TWO places!

 

At what MPH does the average snowflake fall? (please do not google it!)

 

 

[eternalangel]

10 mph. Just guessing here.

[Mashiara Sedai]

1 MPH?

[Shad_]

Wouldn't it accelerate as it falls?

 

I bet it's faster than we think.

 

40 mph?

[Niniel]

I have no idea. 5 mph?

[Sooh]

3mph?

[Rhea]

Sooh is out of the gate!!! Skipping right to White Wountain!

 

Nice job Musher!

 

 

[Rhea]

What do you know about this? Fill in the blank and move your team!

 

 

In the winter-based movie Frozen (2013), there is a scene where two townsmen debate whether to stack the firewood bark up or bark down.

This refers to an actual debate in _________ that was sparked in 2013 after a 12-hour TV program on firewood aired in this country.
