The Checker Maven
Jump to navigationBear Bounty Offered
Brian Hinkle is offering a prize of US $25 to the first solver of his infamous Bear Claw problem (click here to see it again).
Thus far, no one has been able to capture this growling bear. Can you be the first? Brian has a reward for you if you are!
We've delayed publication of the solution until April 8 to give you a little more time to claim the bounty. Can you do it? Send your solutions to Brian as quickly as possible!

Offer void where prohibited, taxed, or restricted by law. Staff and relatives of staff of any of the Mr. Fred Investments group of companies are not eligible to participate.
