Clue #6
Ride this rhyme for a trip through time
From stone circles to the flood
From a raised elevation you'll make observation
That all of us spring from the mud
Clue #5
When the buttons showed up, we screamed out ‘what?!?’
Still, we didn’t cancel the order
So when we hid the puck, we pushed our luck
And hid it so close to a border.
Clue #4
An item hot is the current lot
Of at-home tests for COVID
Ours is nice, in block of ice
Inside the medallion's hid
Clue #3
Far from the path that leads to a bath
The treasure waits so alone
Step out of the dark and go to the park
But avoid obstacles of cone
Clue #2
Get out of your bed if you want some hunt cred
Don’t wait ‘til temps hit the 30s
With the prize as your driver be a vigorous striver
For success means a life of ease
Clue #1
From delta to omicron, what a marathon
Getting from last year to this
Strap on your mask, get down to the task
Let fresh treasure be your bliss
why is it so hard to find a county map that shows all the streets so we know the actual border streets? Is Silver Lake Rd in NB the border up there? Ugh.
I think alphabob might have been exactly right about the mask suggesting a park with hockey and or baseball fields. He may not have known it, but he was kind of on fire that day.
I was at Silverwood yesterday and still interested, also was at hansen...Hansen... a thought for you guys I haven't seen mentioned. Clue one it takes about a mask, what do you think about meaning. St.paul proper as st.paul has a mask mandate?
So that may rule out a bunch of parks if you're thinking border means on the edge of the county line. I'm still torn between a park in New Brighton and Lilydale. I question if they would hide it at Lilydale with one of the trails closed and landslide warnings posted everywhere. Cherokee is still in play. Although border could mean many things like near a Taco Bell? Just thinking out loud here. Lol
Just for the record, even though one of the kids' parks on the south end looks completed, the entire property is fenced in with "No Trespassing" signs.

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.
