Every year on Sauvie's Island, The Maize organizes a giant corn maze for familys to wonder through. The organizers of the event come up with a clever design that reflects something about the location or whats going on in the country. The maze I visited was laid out with a discover Oregon theme.
As was the case last night, the mazes can be quite perilous, not from the many volunteers hiding through out the maze to scare the life out of you, but from the weather. Now to some, tromping aroud a corn field in the pitch black up to your ankles in mud may not sound like much fun, but I had a great time! The lines were short and there wasn't a lot of screaming kids or roudy groups of teenagers. Just me, my friends and our mission to complete the maze.

To help you along the way, there are placards with numbers on them. When you enter the maze your given a trivia card with questions corresponding to the numbers. They have a large variety of trivia to choose from appropriate for all ages from toddlers all the way to those enjoying their golden years. When you encounter a number you look at the question, and depending on your answer you are told to go left or right. It's not as simple as it sounds, find the numbers is half the challenge and fun, especially in the pitch dark in mud up to your ankles!

Enjoy!
