Carrotblanca is a Looney Tunes short based on the movie Casablanca. The various characters in the cartoon can be found at Sleeping Giant State Park in Hamden, CT. There is seasonal fees to park at the main entrance. The journey takes us on the Carrot and Blanca trails. Boxes have no ink, but a healthy black inkpad works fine.

Carrotblanca, a nightclub where anything can happen and where everybody goes. Porky makes a cameo as a customer entering the club, but he clearly looks to be Sidney Greenstreet as Signor Ferrari. Find Porky by starting up the Orange trail from the picnic area. At a double blazed turn, look to right and take 12 steps to a tree behind a rock. Behind the tree is Porky's Cameo.

Tweety is cast as Usmarte, or Ugarte as played by Peter Lorre. From the next double blazed left turn tree, take 12 paces on trail to a tree, go off trail to right to rocks with a log ontop, follow log 60 degrees to other rocks for Usmarte.

Yosemite Sam is cast as General Pandemonium, or Major Heinrich Strasser as played by Conrad Veidt. After double blaze left turn and intersection of Nature Trail, take 20 paces on trail to big 3 sister tree off trail to the left.

Pepe LePew is cast as Louie, or Captain Louis Renault as played by Claude Rains. Continue on Orange past Red and Nature trail to the "1' orange circle marker. 12 paces more on the trail and Louie is in the base of the tree on the right, just past the large boulder and log on left of trail.

Our Carrot journey is over, continue on orange to the Tower Trail and follow that upward left toward the Tower, until you pick up the Blanca (White) trail. You will take the White trail left and begin heading back down.

**Missing** Daffy Duck is cast as Sam, who was played by Dooley Wilson in the movie. Heading back down the White trail, there will be a large rock slab on the trail then a white blazed tree, just before the trail takes a steeper descent down. Stop before the blazed tree and look left, there will be a large treeon the left, look at the base.

Bugs Bunny plays the club owner, Tweety call him Mr Bugs. This is Humphrey Bogart's role as Rick Blaine. Continue down on White and as you near the bottom, there is a blazed tree on the left and a smaller boulder on right. On the right is a tree grown againt a logs. Look under rocks at tree.

Penelope Pussycat plays Kitty Ketty, or Isla Lund played by Ingrid Bergman. At the next double blazed right turn, continue to the second single bazed tree, look behind the tree growing on the boulder and look under rocks.

Sylvester plays Sylvester Slazlo, or Victor Lazlo played by Paul Henreid. Continue a bit now to a small round boulder on right of the trail, and just ahead on the left a tree, from here you are within sight of the park roadway from the picnic areas. Sylvester is behind this tree under a rock.

Continue downhill following the trail, you will cross the bridge that brings your time at Carrotblanca to an end.
