Help needed with Marlboro contest question

Thoughts on #12...
OK, well #12 is really getting to me since there is no real direction here (except meandering :wink: ). Here are my thoughts and please feel free to add to it.

#12 "A roughly 5-mile run at the bottom of a chasm gets it roughly 1 mile closer to standing still. About how high up would you have to meander to catch the sunrise?"

So I am thinking this is in reference to a gorge or canyon somewhere that has a river running through it into a lake, dam, ocean, etc... (standing still) Meander tends to refer to brooks or rivers. The 5-mile run getting it 1 mile closer could refer to a winding river that bends multiple times and the total length (straight line) from start to finish is 1 mile while the actual length of the bends (winding line) is 5 miles. Just an idea. Please let me know if anyone has any other info on this clue. The answer needs to be in "hundreds of feet". Thanks!

#43 seems to still have everyone puzzled including myself. I wrote Coors down myself until I got ideas from others. Try these links maybe they will help or they could make you even more confused like I am. LOL

I notice that I have some question answered that you do not. And you have some that I don't. Such as 2 and 5. I'm willing to help you if you can help me. I will not post my answers in a public forum but if you give me your email address I'm willing to help you out if you are willing to help me out. So if I see your email address I'll know that you and I can work together.

I kinda look at it like this, Marlboro had unlimited resources to do all this research to come up with the clues. And man did they do it well. After reading threw all the rules and such i dont think they expect any one team to have all the answers correct, because they did do such a good job at researching it. So any and all help that you can get even if its not from a team mate is a step in the right direction. Even if all of us that are doing these post here teamed up we still probaly wouldnt get all the answers right. So like i said im willing to share if yall are and lets see if we can match wits with the giant. good luck to everyone, even those who just leech and dont post at all. More tomorrow.....
