which trail head exactly is this? Is that from the parking lot facing the trail headed East into the neighborhoods? If you're out hunting, I've had a thought

Over can also mean Overlake Rd. Its between Overlake and Leibel st. Hence That's Benson Prairie, there I gave away my area ;) On Wed, Feb 3, 2016 at 4:06 PM,

Walked right by it today. There is A LOT of uncovered snow out there today- but it feels like the right area for once! I ended up not being able to contain

Don't know if you can read the sign. It says Benson Farm Prairie Restoration. I like this area for most/ all of the clues since clue 6. Don't know how the clue

Oops! It looks like the sign for Benson Bay is maybe just for the name of the community there. But, at the trail head is this sign. What if the medallion is

Yep, Alfabob. You and I are on the same page. That's exactly where I'd be looking. Maybe 20 feet (hard to gauge distance) west of the north most of those three

I saw that, too. Also saw the trails crossing (on Google satellite view) to form an "x" in an open area just north of the Hugo/Overlake Avenue intersection.

Yes. I've not signed up or registered to it, so I could never post to it, but I have been able to read discussions. Not today, though.

J, if I were out there (and I'm not), I'd be on the east side of Bald Eagle Lake just north of the boat launch parking area. This area is due west of Benson

If I were out, I'd be focused on the area immidiately surrounding or just north of the Bald Eagle boat launch side of the park. That's still a decently large

The Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt is part of the St. Paul Winter Carnival every year. While the prize can only go to one winner, The Allison Wonderland is dedicated to the community spirit of treasure hunting. Here, not only will you find out about the Pre-Dig Gig, the Rehash Bash, and various other social events, but we also discuss the clues here in a team effort to decipher them (albeit not always successfully). This is a place to discuss ideas respectfully, report on what's happening "on the ground", and provide each other with useful information. This is a public group so expect that anything posted will be seen by everyone.
