25-second pick · +85

Biscayne Deep Cut

8 letters · 1 word · ~2s to type · 63 accepted answers on the sheet

If the first word feels too easy, it probably scores 10. We would type Biscayne: Deep Cut, +85, 8 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, or Yosemite — those are Plankton. The trench answer is Wrangell-St. Elias (+100), but only take it if you can spell it cold.

Trench spelling, only if you already know it: Wrangell-St. Elias +100
