Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Mountains) for Friday, January 21, 2022 (Season 38, Game 95):
First scaled in 1829, this 17,000-foot mountain has caused excitement by the supposed discovery of wood high up on it
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s contestants:
Koré Carey, an office manager from Avondale Estates, Georgia
Avinash Rajendra, a PhD student from Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Amy Schneider, an engineering manager from Oakland, California (37-day total: $1,253,200)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts: Yesterday, Amy won her 37th game with her highest one-day total yet at $71,400, moving to 1 win behind Matt Amodio for 2nd all-time. As I mentioned yesterday, nobody who has won 10 or more games on Jeopardy! has ever had their winning streak end on a Friday.
Today is the fifth day of the JEOPARDY! Explore Alaska Sweepstakes. Winners will discover iconic, wild Alaska on an expedition aboard one of Lindblad’s 100-guest sister ships, National Geographic Quest or National Geographic Venture, accompanied by a team of naturalists, certified photo instructors, an undersea specialist and a wellness instructor.
To enter the JEOPARDY! Explore Alaska Sweepstakes, viewers are invited to tune-in to JEOPARDY! every weekday and enter the daily Final Jeopardy! category (today’s is Mountains) on the sweepstakes entry webpage, sweepstakes.jeopardy.com. Then, they will be entered for a chance to win an expedition for two exploring authentic Alaskan coastal wilderness from the unique vantage of a small ship. Each winner and their guest will receive round-trip coach-class air transportation from the winner’s closest major gateway airport, $1,000 US spending cash, as well as all shipboard accommodations, meals (excluding alcoholic beverages), and activities for travel valid in 2022 or 2023.
I would also like to remind the readers that the above information is provided in order to be helpful to readers. This is just a fan site; I have no way of troubleshooting any potential issues that may arise. One thing, though: you have to enter the category before 11:59 PM Pacific Time each day.
On a more personal note: If you’re a Canadian with access to Game TV, make sure you tune into (or record) the new TV quiz show Pop Whiz on Sundays at 7:00 PM through April 24. (I was a writer for it; production took place last summer.)
PSA: The best way to keep COVID-19 at bay (and keep Jeopardy! producing new episodes) is for everybody to get their vaccinations as soon as they are able to, including any boosters as recommended. When wearing a mask, please ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.

Correct response: What is Mt. Ararat?
More information about Final Jeopardy: (The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2022 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
Mount Ararat, in far eastern Turkey near its borders with Armenia, Iran, and Azerbaijan, is famous to Biblical scholars as the supposed final resting place of Noah’s Ark. Thus, many Biblical archaeological teams over the years have made claims about the discovery of wood on the mountain. The most recent excitement appears to have occured in 2010, when a group discovered wood about 13,000 feet up the mountain and claimed that carbon-dating placed the wood at the time of the Ark’s existence. However, most archaeological experts that work in the area immediately dismissed the claims, as it would have been hydrologically impossible to flood Turkey to the extent required.

Koré got to attend the Grammies one year with her father.
Avinash is a self-taught chess expert.
Amy had an older sister, Katie, who died a few days after birth, but Amy thinks Katie’s still looking out for her.
Andy’s Thoughts:
- Amy ties Matt Amodio for #2 in terms of consecutive games won on the show.
- The strategy where Amy’s been starting at $800 in Double Jeopardy! (until the Daily Doubles are found) is a strategy that has been encouraged by 2014 Tournament of Champions winner Ben Ingram for a very long time.
