Experiments
Bold redesign experiments live here side by side with the current pages, at /lab/<date>/, so they can be compared before anything replaces the original.
Adopted Nov 14 — now at /hunts/manteo-merry/
A free holiday walking hunt for families with kids about 5–12: six outdoor stops along downtown Manteo’s waterfront, about a mile and an hour. Built around the town’s free November and December events. No tickets, no Festival Park admission, no paid attractions.
Adopted Nov 14 — now at /passport/
One page that turns every hunt into a collectible passport: it reads the progress already saved on the player’s phone, shows a stamp per finished hunt, a “Continue at clue N” button for hunts in progress, an explorer rank, and the next hunt to try. Existing hunt pages are unchanged.

Adopted Nov 7 — now at /hunts/ridge-explorer/
A free Jockey’s Ridge family walking hunt: five discoveries in the visitor center and along the boardwalk, about ⅔ mile and 60–90 minutes including exploring. No purchases or driving between stops.
Nov 6, 2026 · Adopted Nov 6 — now the live hunt page
Proposed update to The Beach Access Hunt: no "we're parked" checkbox (answer box always visible), and a single short safety note instead of the drive bar, rules list and per-stop warnings. Everything else is the same.
