Our scramble focuses on the orienteering part of things, that is, getting to various spots around the city, and the strategy that goes into making the most of the time involved. It isn't a treasure hunt or brain teaser at all. There are some simple questions that you would have to be at a location to answer (to ensure there's no cheating). But it's all about using a map, plotting a course, and going for it! This scramble is different than the Dave Barry one.
