National Park Mystery Spot 44: A Noisy Interlace Place

By Bob Janiskee - June 21st, 2012

Mystery Spot 44 is in a national park. To answer correctly you must identify both the national park and the specific place within it. Traveler readers answering correctly will be eligible for our monthly prize drawing and a chance to win a copy of David and Kay Scott's The Complete Guide To The National Park Lodges, 7th Edition.

Here are all the clues you should need to identify this mystery spot:

a noisy interlace place
a globetrotting Thomas
a covering for part of the leg
a coffee grinder

Bonus clue, no extra charge: a warship that famously fought to a draw

Check back with Traveler tomorrow for the answer and an explanation of the clues.

No cheating! If we catch you Googling or engaged in other sneakery, we will make you write on the whiteboard the entire set of untouchable numbers preceding 10,000. (Recall that an untouchable number is a positive integer that cannot be expressed as the sum of all the proper divisors of any positive integer, including the untouchable number itself.)

Celbert and Ken, you are in the correct park and have even named the correct building. Now you need to close the deal.

Ken and celbert have both nailed it. To put a finer point on it, they deduced that the mystery spot is a specific room in a specific building in a specific national park.
