They won't bury it in a metal container. Easily detected.

I don't think it would be in an altoit tin. The metal detector thing.

Love the bread dough idea

Altoids are like sore throat drops. I don't know why people thought it was in one, but they did (must be in the clues somewhere).

Dough, Baker Street, what do you think?

wheres the party at?

bdead dough sounds good, but when I was at cherokee last night in the wee hours of the morn I thought dough refered to Baker street that starts by the tennis courts of cherokee.

I just wish I knew exactly what it looked like. Like, how big, what color, etc...? Does anyone know?

RED DOG, STM should be calling you. I say we meet at his place and go from there. I have a long shot I would like to check out.

Denny, where's Baker St. Like the theory.

Copy, over and out

coin is just smaller than a silver dollar about 1/4" thick, clear plastic.

Dough could be a double clue for bakers street and bread dough. And also it could mean its hidden between bakers street and anapolis. 90% of snow at cherokee is not turned over!!!!

it is blue

in regards to the size of a park, the year it was hidden infront of the capitol the search area was very small and it was not found until the last clue.

Is it just me, or do the clues really suck this year?

lets hear some of the best tools to use to find it

I saw people using rakes today...

lets hear some of the best tools to use to find it

It is at Cherokee for sure but what is it in? bread dough?

iron rakes?

Has it ever been found under the ground? Or, has it always been just buried in the snow?

Yeah, the really stiff ones... I don't know if that's the best but it struck me as kind of interesting...

There are really six city streets that run into Cherokee Park, did you forget Morton, Minnesota - the home of Jackpot Junction, an Indian run Casino? Does anyone know which tribe they belong to?

Neon, yes the clues do suck, but we all are agreed that the med is at Cherokee, now we should all be focusing on where in the park, and what it is hidden in.

OK, no one will say it, so I will. The double division theory dividing cities/counties is lame. It's only alive becuase it's the only thing remotely close. Don't get me wrong, I don't have it down yet. Once this is over, the line of double division will make perfect sense and we will all say 'yeah, I was thinking that'. I was at Cherokee last night for several hours. If its there and you find it, I will eat the copy of the Pioneer Press with your picture in it.

E.R. - what is it that makes you say it's at Cherokee for sure?

Has it ever been up in a tree before?

thats what i was using thurs. midnight between the hospital and the playground at mound s and my rake broke. tonight i think my gang will be off to cherokee,

I tell ya, people are "vultures" at Cherokee... I hit an area that wasn't that obvious. Once I was in there a flood of people came rushing in. Actually, it was rather funny! My heart jumped for a minute when I struck a rock... *sigh*

Well Els, what IS your theory about where its hidden?

Lori: Never Underground. Hidden in bread dough.

I'm still stuck on the small park idea. Cherokee fits the clues, but i think there are alot of double meanings in the clues that can be made to fit any number of parks. Someone said it was found in a tree once.

neon it has been hidden above the ground before but i don't think

they want you climbing trees

yes it has been up in a tree

Neon-I was thinking it was in a tree, because there were just too many people for too long digging in the ground at C.P. Also, could it be in a trash can?

Crazie Horse: Okay, bread dough; white, rye, sourdough...?

I need a refresher - why do people think it's at Mounds?

2S:Its not at mounds its at Cherokee

Well i am off. It's nice working at a place that has internet connections. I can work for 4 hrs, play on the web and get paid. Small Parks!!!!! Be back around 11:30 for the next vague clue.

neon last time it was at mounds it was in clay and grass on the ground

its been in a band aid box a white castle box plastic chew container etc.

Before we got the snow I thought it might be in a tree, bush etc. But now, I think it's in the snow.

White bread dough to match the snow. People think its at mounds mostly for the same reasons people think its at cherokee.

I'll admit I was a die hard for Mounds until last nights clue. About 2:30 am I ruled out Cherokee, and I ruled out Prospect 10 munutes later, even though It is between Water and Wood streets, and it is next to Delos (lode anagram).

I'm looking at the small park thoery, and if all else fails, I'm going to Battle Creek becuz no one else has. Mounds is an option if I can get the double division thing figured. Bring laptops tonite, cuz this clue SHOULD give the park away to avid hunters and diggers

Someone said it would be in a mounds candybar wrapper at cherokee park-any signif?

it's not at mound or cherokee,i no for sure,tell you after 11:30 clue
