Different Area, Same Hunt

DASH #12 will likely happen in Pittsburgh in autumn 2020. Announcements about it won't be out until spring 2020.

DASH is a puzzle hunt that happens roughly annually in different areas on the same day. ​More info about DASH and its past hunts can be found on their website. Questions relating specifically to DASH Pittsburgh can be sent to DASHpgh [at] gmail [dot] com.

I brought Pittsburgh into the fold in 2018 during the 10th iteration of DASH which was entitled Deputies Allied to Secure Homesteads and was wild west themed. As a coordinator, my duties were to find locations where players can stop to complete puzzles, acquire any permissions or permits necessary for this, coordinate with main organizers about resources I needed to be mailed to Pittsburgh or purchased and reimbursed, organize puzzle materials into kits for each location, recruit volunteers to help day-of, and create a map and other resources for players. Below is the map of Tenderfoot Falls (East End Pittsburgh) from 2018.

​Dash #11 also occurred in Pittsburgh in 2019. That year I partnered with my pal Dillon to make it happen. He made the map for 2019 and did a great job!
