I don't know much about St Paul parks, but the four clues I've read are virtually screaming "SHORT HUNT." Or at least not getting to the 12th clue. This year is not going to be a stampede on the last night, IMHO.
glacial river warren falls - drained glacial lake agassiz 10,000 years ago down the Minnesota River valley (which hits the Mississippi at Crosby/HF). The remnants of the glacial falls can be seen at both hidden falls and minnehaha falls.
Crosby Farm Nature Area preserves a natural flood plain area of the Mississippi River. During floods, fish and other aquatic animals gain access to the Upper Crosby Lake, Lower Crosby Lake, and all the pondsscattered throughout Crosby's forest.
The park encompasses 6.7 miles of paved trails, many of which run along wooded bottomlands next to the Mississippi River. Visitors can get away from the city's frenzy in the park's 534 acres of flood-plain habitat.
Of course there's a McKinley st. on one side of como and a churchill st. on the other side . . .
David and Goliath
Would you consider Homer a poet? Homer Ave is near Crosby as well.
there was some fighting down there across from fort senelling
Homer's Odyssey - siren - good thinking.
Homer is between Gannon and Elway also.   Giant falls = cyclcops from the Odyssey. We might have a winner.
How about parks near fire stations? the "siren" calls from there . . .

Isn't Crosby considered kinda a sketchy park?
There's a Longfellow at Merriam too.Â
I can't find Gannon St. at Crosby, can anyone point it out a little more clearly?
Sounds like we got some false leads again. Battle Creek, or Crosby, or will something from left field come back into play in a few more clues?
Gen. Douglas McArthur. Point Douglas Road...
gannon is next t hwy 5
I think we again have clues that have some alternate meanings that will come together with later clues.Â
GEE I Have no clue
I think you're right, Terry
ive never scene it this quite after a clue came out
agreed.
Any thoughts about the siren and the giant?
The west entrance to the park is convienently at Gannon Rd and the east entrance is at Elway Rd.

Siren's could be the sirens in Homer's Oddysey.Â
