kinda rehashing things and it seems like alot of people have forgotten that "Bliss" seemed like a pretty big word a day or two ago. There are some pretty great synonyms for Bliss that put river parks especially back in front of my mind again

Using David's hint, I was able to fit every clue thus far to one park pretty nicely. If tonight can fit there, I'll be out hunting tomorrow!

I feel like "street" cred is important--I like the idea of "Strivers Row" and also that each clue may be about a street.....

I think you are right about the County Rd E's. But at this point I think it is a park it hasn't been in before. Also there's a good chance fresh means "New" and out of the dark suggests "Brighton". A lot of the streets there are also number streets, but none as high as the 30s.

I think it depends on how you look at clue 1. I had another thought today that I haven't seen anyone post yet in here or the other forums not sure if I'm ready to share it yet.

that word "ease" really makes me think of the two county roads that run parallel Cty Rd E and E2 which basically puts Tony Schmidt back in my head. I'm going to have to look and see if those two roads extend over toward Silverwood park in New Brighton. The other thing that keeps sticking with me with "ease" or "E's" is that Cherokee has the double "ee" there. It's alot thought to think one word would be so important. 
Anyone think there's much to this "ease" thing?

Perhaps the clue is saying you need to drive to a park located between 35E and 35W.

One of my interpretations is a similar simple explanation:

Far from the path – in the middle of a field or open area

Step out of the dark – not in the woods

Waits so alone – by itself, not under a tree/picnic table

Cone – construction, or used in sports training (refers to sports fields)

Bath – maybe simply a bathroom

One interpretation:  There’s a path that leads to bathrooms.  The medallion is quite a way off that path in an open field (not in the woods).  The park has sports fields, and it’s not on them.

I have a link on the website for sending invites. But maybe that is just because I am the moderator. Otherwise you could give them the link to the website ( theallisonwonderland groups.io Group ) and they could ask to join. Or I think they can send an email to this address: theallisonwonderland+subscribe@groups.io

Saw something on the internet about twitter social media claiming 'delta omicron' is an anagram for 'Media Control'! Look it up.
Don't know if that means anything.

"Cred" def. refers to 'street credibility' or street smarts. Maybe the clue writer is telling us to 'know our streets' and some/lots of these clues refer to street names.

It would be bold, but how does an island feel?
There’s a couple of lakes that have islands only reachable by foot in the winter- don’t wait for temps to hit the 30’s.
I guess they probably wouldn’t since if they did the hunt would be SOL if the ice got unsafe… hmmm

"Strap on your mask, get down to the task" could be a reference to what a baseball catcher or hockey goalie does; both wear protective masks and have to 'crouch down' to perform their respective tasks or jobs. Could mean there are hockey rinks and/or baseball/softball fields in the area where the medallion is hidden.

The treasure not being wrapped in anything does make sense. At first I was thinking "fresh" might actually allude to what it was hidden in, but now I feel pretty certain it is referencing a new park.
