This could possibly be the Galt that they mention.

EDIT: This video is about Galt Canada:

And I'll take a wild guess that the first page of history is in the Queen's Square Terrace (the place in the picture) in Galt Canada.

Dev, going back to an earlier video, "hunting season is now open," songwraith said, "John Galt inherited seven pages of our history." Alexander was his son.

Did anyone else think the image of the doll was particularly unsetteling, almost intentionally so? I mean, I really don't like dolls, but seriously, that was just plain freaky!

haha The doll is just a little bit creepy Boomer52! I've been more focused on finding the lion's head than identifying the doll; I feel like I've seen it before but am stuck on where. Anyone?

Although I haven't located the image's source, I think the door knocker/hitch could be pointing us to Lion's Head, Ontario, a port which is located on the Bruce Peninsula. http://www.thebrucepeninsula.com/lionshead/

As far as I can tell Queen's Square Terrace is about 2 miles from the "page three" location from the Hunting Season video....and yes, that doll is very creepy.

It seems as though Galt had some dealings in western NY, would be nice if a drop off came near me haha. Galt is about a 3 hour drive from where I live.

Dev i looked at the Wiki on Galt,
The picture of him is very similar to the old man in the relaunch video,
I think he is one of the things we should keep in mind for future refrence

Also the shipwreck angle is a good one to think about.. Dead men inside the ship may well call it a prison..

Well i am new here but ive caught up entirely, i was happy to see the latest video wasnt that old, i feel that im ready to join in now.

Also on the Hearts and Heads video, did anyone else hear that sonor blip, I remember something about the ship being found with sonar, well that just happen to come to my mind so I shared it...

Has anyone managed to find what that image of a beached whale is for in the latest video, maybe a beach somewhere near lions head, on the bruce, Im looking now if i fing anything ill get it to you..

EDIT still no luck, the only thing i found was a refrence to a light house nearby that once used whale oil, also the raven, the doll, the cabin , and the old man still puzzle, I mean the ship is an ongoing theme in this soo Im guessing this all ties to something with the ocean...[/spoiler]

Caffiend, I don't think it's a whale but rather a sea lion because of the flippers -- hard to see with the purple overlay so I lightened it up for everyone. Oddly, according to the wiki, sea lions live in most bodies of water in both hemispheres except for the Atlantic Ocean. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_lion Also, it looks like there may be writing on this image where the waves break. Can anyone make it out?

I think it's definitely a whale by the shape, the colors, and the wrinkled pattern on the light spots underneath. It looks like the side facing us is the ventral side (underside) with the head to the left of the image and the fluke to the right. Wave action, scavenger action and natural decomposition will effect the appearance of any animal that's been dead in the water long enough, and make it sometimes difficult to identify from a single grainy and compressed image, but my first impression when I saw this was that it's a sei whale. Hard to be sure without something to determine the scale. It could be a bloated blue whale, or it could be a humpback with its fins either obscured or removed.

Yeah, judging by the relative size of the thing to the waves and the rocks at the bottom of the image, I'd say its a whale.

I suppose it could be if part of the fluke got cut off, and it does look like something is missing. Also, it appears to have grooves like humpback whales do so that may be right. My first thought was that both the door/gate (lion) and this clue (sea lion) were leading to lion's head on the Bruce Peninsula, but I could be wrong.

The more important question is about the page of the history set to be released in Galt this weekend. Do we have the clues to find it already?

Well, the only specific location we have for Galt is Queen's Square Terrace. I was kinda hoping we would get some more info by now.
