Yeah if it has golf (putts) then I think we are back out at Phalen and the trolley clue 6 was spot on. Pitches made it still seem like BVNS was still in it, bridges, yeah, but the putts, that may have killed BVNS and Harriet unless they put in a mini putt somewhere like Como? Or it could be a trick for like puttsing around, or Grumpy Old Men ya (Putts) Putz? But if its golf, a Phalen we will have to go. Follow that trolley!

This was on the PP FB site posted 5 hours ago:
PLEASE READ AND SHARE: 
To ensure we are respectful of sacred landscapes within our city’s public spaces, Saint Paul Parks and Recreation has requested that Indian Mounds Regional Park is excluded for the remainder of this year’s hunt. We can confirm that the medallion is not located within the park, and out of respect all hunting should be directed elsewhere. Good luck!

" Before it gets hotter" (Etna Street), "line three bodies water" (Frost Lake, Atlantic (street), and Lake Phalen). Stay within Frost Lake Park (it has the lake and ballfields and swing sets), in the bower (trees area) but not too close to Etna Street.

Well, Matt Bennett had picked Swede early on and has built up 210 points on it, but has since switched to Bruce Vento. Do you still want to switch as catching up is unlikely at this point?

So you have to dig around in a porta potty?! I think you would definitely want some rubber boots and a (hazmat) suit to do that!

I wondered about this in post #263. I thought if the medallion WASN"T in IM park, and the PP wanted people to stay out of the sacred mounds area, the PP would announce that. But, since they didn't (at first) I thought that meant the medallion was there.

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.
