Yes, Harriett Island is indeed a very musical park and there does seem to be a strong music theme to the clues thus far. And I do think there is a bell in
Re: Clues scream "CROSBY!"
The thing that bothers me about Crosby is that there are a couple of obvious things that say Crosby, but the not so obvious clues seem to say not-Crosby.

Re: Clues scream "CROSBY!"
Yes! The cluewriter, maybe using reverse logic, is saying "it's in Crosby" in so many of the clues, that we think he's trying to fool us into thinking it's in

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.
