Clue #8
Water is grand in our hunt's land
Up above our site and lower.
You won't need suit nor rubber boot
If you walk amongst the bower.
Clue #7
If you’re in town, swing on down
To a park lit up some nights
Before it gets hotter, line three bodies water
And you’ll have it in your sites
Clue #6
Once at the summit, it did quite plummet
Before it got to the bluff
Starting and stopping, winding and hopping
It will eventually lead to the stuff
Clue #5
We will protect each clue from the GRU
Nyet hackers! Have you no shame?
They may fix our elections, but we'll spark insurrection,
If they try to interfere with our game
Clue #4
One patterned neat and trim, one salvaged life and limb
Did the two cutters who lived down the way.
Herringbones or sawbones?
You decide which will play.
Clue #3
This hunt’s guarantor settles that forevermore
Noodlers treasure noggins; keep that in mind.
So doff your warm cap, study dog-eared map
And genuflect in the presence of the find.
Clue #2
Though the times be quite peachy, we do so beseech ye,
To venture out of doors for a romp
As you traipse through the snow, your medallions aglow,
Careful of what flora you stomp
Clue #1
There’s just enough snow and temperatures low
To rouse us from our snoozing
And hide the MacGuffin, no we ain’t bluffin,
In a park of our very own choosing.
The Vikings are done, the Twins yet begun
What excuse do you have to dawdle?
Gather your kin, prepare for the win
And be sure to bring a hot bottle
I am not sure, David should have that knowledge. The video was very short, first showing the Tree with ski tracks behind it maybe 15 feet, and then it showed like a weather forcast map showing some light snow and temps, then it cut to the scene showing the trees to the sky. The sound in the video had no traffic, but there was a slight hum, possible distant traffic or a high up plane going over. So I screen shot the 2 important parts of the video which is really all the video ever showed it never panned, it was just focused on the tree in one scene then cut to the weather map, then the next scene at the tree tops, end of video.
I haven’t paid enough attention to these videos in the past. How literal (?) are they? Are we to believe that these images are from the site? Has a “post mortem” on previous videos shown this to be the case?
VideoWay early back at clue one, I posted 2 stills from that video on one of the posts, look for my earliest 3-4 posts, you will see the pics from the video

Do we post here in reply or make a new post ??
Either way. I go back and look at every message since the last clue came out to see if there were any new guesses.

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.
