Clue #5

When hunters were bidden to where it was hidden

By forces beyond their ken

We got a clue to start things anew

And hope it won’t happen again

 

IS this why everyone is jumping on highland park? Pleasant Plot = Pleasant Ave reconstruction in 2025?The City of Saint Paul plans to reconstruct Pleasant Avenue from St Clair Avenue to Victoria Street and Victoria Street from Pleasant Avenue/Benhill Road to Jefferson Avenue in 2025.
Plus the Fort Snelling Plot connection with the Army Song.... I guess. But Im way too late to guess that now. LOL

10 for Frogtown Park and Farm. Many clues fit there; you have to cross over Dale when you drive from downtown, there used to be an old dirt trail, Calvary cemetery is right next to it, there is a hill - if you climb it you have a good view of the city. It also has a sliding hill,  “yield” would be the farm produce. Water and field - you need water for the farm and on and on.  It is a cool place - I took students there to work the farm last year. It is a very diverse population of people and all different kinds of food, which would be something important to MN.  
Anyways, just noodling but I am going out of town til Monday so wanted to share my noodles.  Thanks. Jone

10 for Langford please. TY Birthday boy

I talked to a park official at Pike and they told me it would never be there. 

The State park rules really emphasize no going off the trails, let alone attacking vegetation with a hoe.   Add in the need to have a daily or annual permit, and I find it unlikely as a hiding place.

Sorry for being a bit late on the noodling. Here's what I'm thinking.

1. Santa Ana winds come from Nevada and Utah. So possible street location.
2. Hills are glowin to me means stay away from the city
3. Beast = East, maybe
4. The last line feels like it is a lyric from Bob Dylan. Would we say he's from North or North East Minnesota?

An out there idea, Bob Dylan used pseudonym Jack Frost so I'm thinking North St. Paul eye sight of that giant snowman. 

Just some current noodling - Pike Island fits some clues.

• If the Bob Dylan reference was for the movie “A Complete Unknown”, that could mean a new park. I don’t think the medallion has been at Pike. 

• Pike was originally a sacred place (a refuge) for the Dakota people until it was bought for Fort Snelling

• Military reference could refer to it being part of Fort Snelling and the history of the island being used for various military uses, including an internment camp.

• Pike is part of Fort Snelling Park which isn’t in Ramsey county, but Pike Island itself is in Ramsey.  The clue of “in and out” could refer to being in and out of Ramsey.  You need to park in Hennepin and walk into Ramsey to get to Pike.
