Jumble Spoiler – 11/05/21

Visual Description:  Entering a national park.

PRUUS  =  USURP,  FAYTF  =  TAFFY,  TUNORA  =  OUTRAN,  OJDANI  =  ADJOIN   —   Giving us:  URTFFOTRAON

Clue/Question:  The sculpture of the Presidents at Rushmore’s 1,278 acre park is – – –

Answer:  AT THE “FOUR–FRONT“

(Interesting pun!  Forefront isn’t the most common of words, so I wouldn’t be surprised if some of you struggled to solve this one.  I like it though.  I always enjoy the Jumbles that involve Mount Rushmore.  It’s a little controversial, but I’d still like to visit it some day.

We appear to have a brand new clue word for the ralis95 clue word database, in “outran”.  Words like that are always kind of surprising to me.  How did it take this long to be used in a Jumble?  It took me a while to unscramble it though.  Two of the jumbles are coming up as new, but we’ve definitely seen “pruus” and “faytf” before.  The answer letter layout was a great eleven letter jumble.  Not obvious.  I think the quotation marks and the hyphen were a big help.

Fine cartoon of one of America’s most famous monuments.  The entrance to the park isn’t shown as much as the monument itself.  Great Jumble.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
