well...Even if not in the right park...I had a good time diggin with eveybody tonight...
a nice thing after all the bickering for a few days....
diggin'.....its what we do....is what we know...
yep
Clue three will give you the 36 divide.
The metal man was found last year on the opposite side.
For many years this wetland would have hidden many
And waste from all would have been considered a plenty.
But today the area is more pure and true.
Still canÕt find it, tomorrow thereÕll be another clue
Â
Â
clues up alrdy!!! ok...where was it last year...geez..I suck
I'm thinkin' the ecological areas...but which one??
My guess would be on the ::flips a coin::Â North side
wow, clues up already! so which one do we hit first??
roaster has an early release today :(
mine do too
Well last year the one called Target pond, on the North Side, was not any where near a parkland, they have really done some work this past year. So my guess is that it was found in the other area last year.
I can't find anything on where it was found last year. I'm gonna take off now, will take me a while to get there, The plan is to stop at local stores and ask the clerks if they remeber where it was last year. Backup plan is to call and wake Krissy up and ask her (pretty sure she doesn't know)
LL - I will call you about 8:30
Ok, I'll be waiting :)
can you see target from both??? Throw a dart is Target.
You can see target much easier from the new north side Environmental Learning Center.
Big question is, where was the medallion last year... Either center, they picked a good area, both will take time to search. I'll be out tonight around 9:30 again.
nahh.. it's gotta be the north side.. the clues fit that area much better than the south side.
I came in here just in time to capture this...
JOE! ;)
and I saw it, Joe.
Joe?
Cool diggin, I did not know that. That confirms it then. The medallion hast to be in the Environmental Learning Center.
KCORN...if you are going out tonight...I'm game....just don't know where to start in that "center".....gotta think about this one today.....
(thank god I work...otherwise I wouldn't have time to nooodle)
if it hasn't been found I'll be out.

I searched the northern side last night, except for the grove of trees behind the strip mall, pretty much that whole area would be a nice target to search. There are two signs at the southern corners of the parks, but I'm doubting it's there, one's next to a taco johns, I can't imagine they'd find a time to place it there. the other faces the main road as well, and 11th is fairly well traveled.
bummer diggin, you had some good info too! if it isn't found by this evening, just swing on by the environmental center for a lil bit. having a few people out there, and we're sure it's the right park, it's gotta get found now.
searching in this area sucks....just not real points of reference for anything in the park....just a few spots that I wanna double check....
Â
echos of crobsy come to mind... I'm wondering if you go with the idea that you should be able to see the target sign and the polar plaza sign from the location. I'll haveta do a visual when I'm there tonight.
I am still liking the idea that the "lucky" in the first clue is giving you the Irish name Flanders. That is the street that dead ends into it on the west side.
Bummer I will not have time to get out again till Friday.Â
I hope one of us finds it...we need to start a finding trend :)
I'll be out in the evenings. Tomorrow I can search from 6pm on. I see no posted hours for that park... perhaps I could be there later... honestly there's only so much area, let's find the thing and get it over with.
Bummer I will not have time to get out again till Friday.
Â
what??? can't go out at night??? geez...this sucks..you are our morning person...
yeah what gives, if tomorrow's clue is good, some local could possibly get the medallion ;)
sux....that's why I'm going out tonite....
I'm going to noodle the heck outta these clues to MAKE something fit...
the dead end....
the corner with the bench...
the corner with the pinetrees.....
I don't like on 36...2 much trash...
something HAS to pin point it...what???
Oh, a 90 JOE!
where are the clues for this hunt?
http://www.nstpaulevents.com/snow_frolics/medallion_clues.html
There's one option I didn't really try while out there. I'll check that out tonight.
I'm really guessin this snowman isn't on the ground, per clue 2, which pretty much leaves us with trees, signs, and benches.
Could this snowman be stuck in a back stop or something like that? Reference to "this game".Â
Nope, there's not much of anything in the area they say to look at from clue 3. a large pond, trees, a couple benches, wetland areas, 3 signs.. and that's about it.
Ok... so... lets talk about next weeks hunt lol
The Medallion Has Been Found!
duh!!! when?? those bastard didn't put in on the clue page....
So Sorry Joe!
We just missed it JOE

this could suck...I think clues are only posted up there...not online...
is about 45min. drive..... prize $$ 2 years ago was $100 ..not sure what worth now...
Â
Aren't they going to say whereit was found?
Don't give up hope yet! Frozen Buttox hasn't checked in yet.
Here's the scoop!!!!
DARN IT...I shoulda looked...
Was found on McKnight Field --the ballfield under the waterfountain....
this is buy the batting cages....was found about 1pm today....
I drove over there.....didn't get outta my car....
(should have gone with the blue ice=diamond thing)
this town doesn't even need clues....
could just say its in a park....after a week you could check everypark in town...(if its not burried in snow)
So maybe my "hanging from a back stop or something" noodle wasn't that far "off-base". :)
At least I LEARNED half the parks...
Northwoods, Tower, Cannon, Polar, Casey
http://www.ci.apple-valley.mn.us/Parks/Special_events_and_celebrations/M_W_F/2005/main.html
looks like this weekend....gotta try to find rules...age limit etc.
I sent an email to NorthBranch for info on theirs...
Â
what the heck? it was in mcknight field? that sucks...
Well, least I know the parks for next year... got a good list goin. Next hunt for me will be the oakdale one. I'm prepping for that already.
Aw shucks!
