I found this and thought it might help in discussions....

http://www.claycritters.com/map/survivor_7_map.htm

It looks like Morgan has a bigger island so might have more trouble finding their burried treasure...

From the map...it looks like the combined tribe is going to be Balboa...(It instantly made me want a Balboa Bar - from the Fun Zone on the Balboa Pennensula in So. Ca.!)

Thanks sooooo much NeedMyLifeBack! This would be a great thread for any information regarding the flora and fauna and possible food sources for the Tribes. Also what they are allowed to hunt and what is off limits.

(I'm hinting to everyone with any info to post it here...lol)

Glad you started this thread.

The pictures were beautiful... what a lovely place.. no wonder Rupert is so thrilled to be there.

(The pictures came from clicking on the Red on the map.)

The island that the "Bootee Bungalows" are on looks like it is really small and that's basically all that there is ...trees and bungalows...but, it looks beautiful too!

If you have a sound card...the ocean waves continue while you look at the map..

Looks like the two tribes merge and use the island that Drake is currently useing...just another part of it!

Also....It looks like different challenges were on different islands...and that Morgans camp is in an inlet as well...they should be catching loads of fish...what have they been doing????? (LOL)

"Looks like the two tribes merge and use the island that Drake is currently useing...just another part of it!"

That's because by the time of the merge, there are no members of the Morgan team left. The producers felt it was just easier to tell Drake, "Ok, just move yourself over to that side of the island..."

Omg...my first real 'laugh out loud' laugh of the day.

Thanks Prisoner! :)

Prisoner, thanks for the laugh!

I love this thread... I have spent most of my online time today, checking out the links. The pictures are just outstanding. I've been practicing making links, and soon as I get it right more than once out of four times.. hehe.. I want to post some links to.

Lorry:

Am looking forward to your links.

While I was 'brousing', I came across a site sponsored by one of the Pearl Island resorts. (did not bookmark it) This site gave a very thorough listing of local fauna. This site also mentioned that one of the islands is a bird preserve, while another is an animal preserve.

I am curious: Due to the location of the Pearls, I was wondering if the Survivors can see Panama canal traffic on the horizon?

LOL @ Prisoner. The Morgans are poopin' out, all right.

It looks like a looonnng boat ride to the Tribal Council. They arrive at nightfall, too. TC's take a lot longer than we see. They must be so pooped and discouraged once they return to their home island; enough to make Osten cry.

Don't be silly Enigma, do you think for one moment Osten wouldn't have already taken the raft and flagged down a ship if he could see them on the horizon??? rofl

Hello Pannie, you're right.. I forgot about how the teams have to paddle back to their islands after the challenges... I bet that is one long and miserable trip for the team that loses.

I read that during a previous Survivor, they were transported (driven?) to tribal council. It was not shown on the air, just showed them walking in at the end, which seemed like they'd walked the entire way. This was revealed in a post interview w/ one of the contestants.

To Lorry:

Good point. But I don't think that Osten could manage to row himself that far without 'giving-up.' (On the other hand, I'm sure that Lill would volunteer to row him out there...)

To Marzz:

Gee! I could qualify to be a Survivor. I live in NYC and have supurb skills in flagging-down taxis.

I'm bringing this back up to the top in a pathetic attempt to keep it from dropping off the page...I think the map will be important next week if the merge occurs....O.K. and also it is one of the few threads I have ever started! LOL!

I think you are right Needmylifeback. Let's hope Morgan's treasure is more exciting (and in better shape) than Drake's.

Enigma2

Saturday, October 18, 2003 - 08:15 am EditMoveDeleteIP
Good idea, Needmylifeback. Can't remember: does the merge take them to yet another island?

Lori: I almost forgot that Morgan has still not found their treasure. I started wondering what happens if they have still not found it before the merge. (Maybe we'll find it on 'Antiques Roadshow')

I love this thread. It helps me visualize where they are and what is around them. Not that it helps, hehe, but I'm so darn nosey I want every detail. Thanks again NeedMyLifeBack.

After looking at the map and seeing the distance from the camps to tribal council, I bet that they "motor" boat them to TC. I have not seen them arrive nor leave the TC by boat as we did during the Amazon and Thailand. You only see them walking in and walking out.

Gen, I haven't seen the maps, but I've thought the same thing since the beginning of the show. When they show aerial shots of the islands, I thought, "There is no way the show is letting these people row back to camp in the dark after TC."

I've seen their little boats at the TC dock, but my guess is it's a plant and they are shuttling them (or towing them).

Halfunit, thanks for confirming what I thought.

Needmylifeback posted a link, in the very first post on this thread, that shows the map. The Morgan tribe would have one heck of a row to get to TC, much farther than the Drake tribe.

Needmylifeback: Yes, the sound is great.

Do you recall another site which was comparing the previous German version of Survivor which was held on the same islands as the US Survivor. In my memory, I recall additional maps. I will try to look for it.

Now I am suspicious. Needmylifeback says in the first post of this thread that the combined tribe will be called Balboa. Rupert "just happened" to call his snake Balboa! Rupert is the Mole.

Maybe there was a challenge and winner gets to name the merged tribe. Of course Rupert wins it and names new tribe after his snake.

Reading about Dogdoc's suspisions above, who was "Balboa"? A pirate? Or a location of where pirates lived? If it has anything to do with pirates, then you know Rupert already knows about it. He is sooo into this pirate theme, it's great!

Enigma ~ maybe the reason the treasure they've found already was all mildewed was because it wasn't the one planted by the current Survivor crew but by the Germans, lol!

Nevermind ~ answered my own question and it wasn't letting me edit . . . .

Vasco Núñez de Balboa (1475-1519), Spain.

Spanish conquistador and explorer. He was the first European to see (and stand in the waters of) the eastern shore of the Pacific Ocean, on September 13, 1513. He accomplished this feat after an arduous trek through the jungles of what is now Panama. He claimed the Pacific Ocean and all its shores for Spain, which opened the way for Spanish exploration and conquest along the western coast of South America. . . . . . . . . .

1518, Governor Dávila falsely accused Balboa of treason, had him arrested, ordered a speedy trial and sentenced Balboa to death. In January 1519, Balboa and four friends were beheaded.

The survivors knew where the location was for this particular game, right? So Rupert probably did alot of reading up before going there.
