Pro Tips!

You can make the puzzle harder or easier to work by choosing the number of pieces contained in the puzzle. Before clicking "OK" to start the puzzle, click the 9-Dot symbol and select the number of pieces you want to tackle.

You can start with only the edge pieces (just as you might with a real life puzzle). Click the Frame button, as shown above. Once you've completed the frame, all the other pieces will appear.

Make the puzzle bigger (and easier to see as you work) by clicking the "Full Screen" button.

Golden History: The Moving Mountain

58 Years Ago
The January 26, 1967 Colorado Transcript reported that Adolph Coors Co. was having trouble preventing South Table Mountain from nudging 32nd Street ever closer to the brewery.

A year earlier, Coors had moved a section of the road south to make way for a brewery expansion. Since then, the mountain had been “pushing downward at a rate of about two and a half feet a year.” The company planned to remove 235,000 cubic yards of earth from the south side of the street, and expected that to solve the problem.
