Discuss the 2005 Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt here.
me2
I have dial up and I havnt had any troubles wit the forum lately :(
Now we have to look at the names of the people who post looks like we just get lost in the words. I wont be online much after today -that is a huge park and we know its there -so I will be out there as much as possible
I think that the pace will pick up now that we are all on the right park. I just have no idea where to start looking. I don't know if it is possible to find it without more of a clue as to the Where. All I know is that it is getting harder to get up and teach kids now that I am burning the candle at both ends. It may be time to go to the "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" curriculum.
Chief Thunder, that's pretty much what I was thinking. They want us to get to the park sooner this year because they actually don't want yet another clue 12 hunt (people will just stop paying attention to the early clues if they seem to be always worthless) and because they think it's going to take people quite a while to find the thing in the woods.
There is no way it is at Como. They have been pointing to cliffs and thusly, have backed themselves into a corner. To change now after each clue fits Crosby and HF more and more would cause a peasant uprising and ultimately leave St. Paul in rubble. Ok, maybe not rubble, but I know that I would be really mad!
They've said not Crosby twice. Not a Very White Christmas and Tween the two Field Generals. What is missing in the word Be'Tween'Â No Be, or No Bet. Could be Hidden Falls though, as referring to Prior Ave in another clue, or possibly Fort Snelling is that a park in Ramsey??
I am over two hours away from the excitement and at work. Been lurking every year and when I get a strong hunch on a clue, I will add my two cents to the forum. Looking over the Park maps and trying to figure where the clue writer is going with the next clue. Â Â Â Â
Kitch, I met him once while maintaining Coingo Boingo. We should have a pool on which geocaches in Crosby will survive the onslaught. Hint to hunters: The medallion is not in an Altoids tin hanging from a tree in a sock surrounded by coins! Heh.
I'm good KT how are you this am?? :) a lil tired.. didn't get to bed until about 3:30 and got woke up w/a phone call... lol otherthan that.. .I'm geewwwd!! Lookin forward to tonites clue. U goin down to Ma's tonight?
MM, I was supposed to be at work yesterday and today, but I feel like I'm battling the flu. So I've been at home, trying to get back to 100%. That's why you haven't seen me out since the PDG. I want to go out badly though.
MM-I dunno if I'm goin down. MORNING GREEN!!!! Might have to take Hannah for a walk down there today, maybe. MM- the gaytes are open until 11 pm, and you can drive way down there. I guess it would be pretty cool if it truly is down there, cuz of the sweet fire pit. I could do my 4 day & 4 night ceremonial fire for my Dad. The "frequenters" of Cros. are gonna bum out that their trysting plaza has suddenly become so popular.
There is HUNDREDS OF LURKERS OUT THERE THIS YEAR!!!!
Due to the fact that PP has put our thread in the paper....
I'm like the next guy that enjoys people during the hunt ....but I don't want some smuck to say he read the thread....walked out on clue 10 and picked it up.....
I want somebody to find it that contributes ideas, stand in line at the paper, digs with us, etc. .....
Yeah lol but what happens if ya park up there and they close the gates on ya?? ROFLAMO then you're screwed! Unless you have 4 wheel drive... like I currently have.... hmmm... *ideas* haha

Of course there's a McKinley st. on one side of como and a churchill st. on the other side . . .

McKinley was a president, but he wasn't a general.

I wonder if I can stop myself from joe whoren....

Figures from Clue 3 is bugging me. Are there any statues in Crosby?
Not that I know of....
GC9FA6 need to find the guy that is living down there.....and talk to him....
If there are two clue writers, they must be guys. They could easily walk in and out of Crosby together to hide the puck ;)
too bad its a gayted area.
hahaha TMK only YOU would come up with something like that :P oh haha btw I forgot you weren't gonna be at work ystrdy and sent U a msg.
