The original Army Song
Over hill, over dale, we have hit the dusty trail,and those caissons go rolling along.
"Counter march! Right about!"
hear those wagon soldiers shout,
while those caissons go rolling along.
For it's "Hi! Hi! Hee!" in the Field Artillery,
Call off your numbers loud and strong.
And where e'er we go you will always know
that those caissons go rolling along.

To the front, day and night where the doughboys dig and fight
and those caissons go rolling along.
Our barrage will be fired on the rockets flare
while those caissons go rolling along.
For it's "Hi! Hi! Hee!" in the Field Artillery,
Call off your numbers loud and strong.
And where e'er we go you will always
know that those caissons go rolling along.

With the cav'lry, boot to boot we will join in the pursuit
and those caissons go rolling along.
Action front, at a trot, volley fire with shell and shot
while those caissons go rolling along.
For it's "Hi! Hi! Hee!" in the Field Artillery,
Call off your numbers loud and strong.
And where e'er we go you will always know
that those caissons go rolling along.

Should the foe penetrate, ev'ry gunner lies in wait
and those caissons go rolling along.
Fire at will, lay 'em low, never stop for any foe
while those caissons go rolling along.
For it's "Hi! Hi! Hee!" in the Field Artillery,
Call off your numbers loud and strong.
And where e'er we go you will always know
that those caissons go rolling along.

But if fate me should call, and in action I should fall
keep those caissons go rolling along.
Then in peace I'll abide when I take my final ride
on a caisson that's rolling along.
For it's "Hi! Hi! Hee!" in the Field Artillery
Call off your numbers loud and strong.
And where e'er we go you will always know

that those caissons go rolling along.

I'm also considering Cherokee lower on my list. There is (or was?) the Bruce Vento Overlook down on the South end. The city hills are glowin could just refer to the view of the city across the river that you get at night.

Not sure why my other emails won't go through so I'll just reply to this one with my picks. Thanks
Hey AW. Nice seeing you guys at the PDG tonight. Thanks for running this board once again. Please place my 10 votes as follows:
5 - Battle Creek5 - Cono

I hate to ever read too much into the first clue, but if this was going to be the only clue in the hunt, I might think Swede Hollow. The last line suggests "in the wind" and the Santa Ana's are also a wind. The name Vento translates as "wind". The Bruce Vento Trail goes through Swede Hollow. It's a hilly area that was once burned in the 50's to clear out the last residences there.    The trail also goes through Phalen as does California Ave. The Vento Memorial Grove is also at Phalen.   So I think I'll start off with 6 votes for Swede Hollow and 4 for Phalen.

Put my 10 guesses for clue one on Swede Hallow

There will indeed be early clue releases this year. They will be happening at Shamrocks again. In fact, I will be there Sunday night after I leave the Brewery for the Golden Beer Can Hunt.

Is there a newspaper release somewhere this year or can you only get the clue online each night? Thanks!

You're certainly welcome to still armchair hunt with us here!

Hi David, l regret l will not be attending the predig, but l do hope to get out hunting one of the warmer days. My energy has been limited because l am going through chemo and some days are pretty rough. l however will attempt to hunt if l feel my strength is blowing strong!
