NATIONAL PARKS: It’s named for a river indigenous people called Mi tse a-da-zi, translated by French-speaking trappers as “Pierre Jaune” show

It was a week with no triple stumpers and no triple solves. We got one correct response on 3 days and two right on two days. There were a lot of complaints online about confusing wording; however, we thought Monday’s clue was more misleading than anything else and was therefore the most difficult. Friday’s clue was a cinch for anyone who knew what color the French trappers were referring to, but we felt it could still be solved if you knew the name of the river.

Jeopardy! champs, week of February 13, 2023

Mira Hayward was back on Monday to try for a third game but she lost to Kendra Westerhaus. Kendra won again on Tuesday but she lost to Stephen Webb on Wednesday. Stephen broke the chain of 2-day champs by winning the rest of the week. We’ve got another tournament coming up so we have to wait till March 10th to see if Stephen will win Game 4. The top payday of the week belonged to Stephen in his first game.
