Once they found this iconic building, they were challenged to take a picture of their tallest and shortest team member in front of the skyscraper.

For this stop, teams were challenged to find and take a photo with Jean Dubuffet’s Monument Au Fantome sculpture in Discovery Green. This French name translates to “imaginary city” in English. This large free-form red-white-blue sculpture on Avenida de las Americas is the park’s most well-known artwork and one of Houston’s great treasures. The sculpture represents 7 features that all represent elements of Houston. These features are a chimney, a church, a dog, a hedge, a mast, a phantom, and a tree.

For this challenge, they had to go to The Morian Hall of Paleontology within the museum, which is packed with prehistoric beasts. This section of the museum does not have the same stagnant displays of ancient skeletons standing in a row that many visitors are accustomed to seeing.

Participants had to get a photo of their team “running away” from one of these hungry beasts!
