Well, if we can't find the medallion, at least we can talk WWF. But anyways, folks, there's a chance I might actually have to work tommorrow, and there's not much of a chance in hell that I'll be digging in the next 22 hours, so I'm gonna hit the sack.
If Derick's clue is wrong (which I doubt), I suggest he change his name on the cooler.......
some will read a places serve this clue to to well that gain help and really relief you and get from as just you the youre might cooking rain looking obtain. (reading the words downwards, would make more sense if drunk)
Anyone wanna help me list all the possible parks so I can look up their maps and info??? here's what i have so far (not taking any of the clues into account) 1.. como 2.. cherokee 3.. battle creek 4.. hidden falls 5.. highland 6.. newell 7.. phalen 8.. harriet 9.. conway Any more would be greatly appreciated... I'll post my ideas on the clues soon
well no hunting for me this year, so i will try to help out here. clue #4 --> first letter of each line --> SWRA --> WARS --> Battles --> Battle Creek I got this because the clue obviously tells you there is something hidden within the clue, and my guess is its the first letter anagram thingy! Good Luck All. Dave
if you want parks that are possible you might want to take phalen off your list. linwood park is a possiblity, but i personally would not hide a treasure their
Here's my ideas on the clues without naming parks... I think thats what kills people is getting a park in mind and MAKING all the clues fit it... FIRST figure out the clues and then find the park that fits... It's been said before but I had to say it again...
#1 Obviously just a St. Paul park and STAY OFF the golf courses... (although Vikings depression could = Swede Hollow) Oops there I go naming parks already...
#2 Set your own pace... could make you an ace (winner)... into the chase... My feeling is either a Marathon (the St. Paul Marathon) or walking/jogging paths (although those aren't races) if Marathon then we need to figure out the Start/Finish of it and possibly the entire route
#3 I dont think 'tower or two' means TWO TOWERS... i think it means ONE tower and the number TWO, all in view to the North of the park/ hiding spot/ area (North from the King Boreas reference. or towards St. Paul if it's referring to that) i think they split 'tower or two' with "or" because they are far enough apart to not be grouped but also both can narrow the searching field...
#4 I feel like there's something hidden in this one, clueless to it as of now... SWRA came up (South West Regional Area)... other than that I see what everyone else does... Grilling facilities and Picnic SHELTERS
Just one Cats take on these... tear em up or build em up... just do it so it helps everyone else out... Digging sucks... especially 10 miles from the right park...
Thanks Winger... how about Swede Hollow??? That first clue could be the giveaway... who woulda thunk Vikings depression would name the park when nearly every hardcore minnesotan is experiencing it?
King Boreas is appearing at Como this year right? I doubt that it's Swede Hollow cause the nieghborhood is too scary for the tame types that probably planted the Medallion. Parking is bad and the chances of someones car getting broke into there is good.
At Como there is a golf course, snow towers, picnic shelters and cooking facilities.
I'm disappointed I didn't get to see Steve. I talked to him on the phone and gave him the good news that the prize money was back again at $10,000. He's a nice guy and I sure do appreciate my signed copy of his book as well.
I just discussed the clues with a fellow co-worker. The thought from him was it's either at Highland or Newell. At Newell, you'd have to be facing St. Paul, so the State Fairgrounds would be at your back and you wouldn't be able to see the towers. His reason why Newell is that the first clue said change your obsession (from football) to baseball (Saints). However, no golf course but Como. I'm not sure how close the Como golf course is - probably not close I didn't see it when I was at Newell last year looking. Now, Highland has shelters, kitchen, different types of golf, etc. and TOWERS. The better feeling of the two is Highland; however, I'm not ruling out any park quite yet.
Hello fellow Medallion Freaks! Don't they (the news) always go to Como or Highland to do the reports on the hunt? It always throws me. So, I was out at the rapscallion named Phalen's park last night to check out the several radio towers in northern view and I found that the park was closed. Is night hunting discouraged or do people go anyway? Also, I was wondering if anyone knows the least amount of clues the Med has been found in? Just wondering.
Lillian, if you go to the coolercrew website, they have a list of hiding places/clues for many, many years. Check it out. You'll get a lot of useful information there.

Hey Treasure Digger, what is the year that those two lovebird stumbled uppon the treasure? Did they turn the medallion in right away? Was there even a hunt?
So it's probably out there. Somewhere I had heard that it wasn't even hidden until after the first few clues came out. I really hope that isn't true. Does anyone know- can you see towers from the Hidden Falls picnic Area? Airport nearby too. May have to scope that area this afternoon. Any thoughts?
From any of the past history that I have found, the medallion was found the earliest after 5 clues. That was only 2 1/2 days into the hunt when there were two clues each day.

SAVE THE NEWSPAPER CLIPPINGS!!! Just a friendly reminder that the rules are a little different this year. The medallion is worth $2,500 - the original PP clue clippings (turned in with the medallion) are worth $2,500 - and the registered winter carnival button is worth an extra $5,000. Registration postcards must be postmarked by tomorrow, so don't miss out on the extra $$$$ - make sure you take the extra steps!

they did the first letter thing last time with battle, seems weird to do it again, and only on 4, it was found on #6 the day they did that back in 95

Who's the idiot in charge of updating the Medallion Hunt Website?
For clue No. 5 Click here? I think we're on No. 4 now, right?
In the previous clues section there are only two clues listed and there should be three.
It's nice to see that the PP is on top of things. :/

Steve Worthman, the guy that wrote "St. Paul Parks" (I've an autographed copy!) is going to be on The 9 in just a few minutes!
I *think*... Maybee not tho... Bummer!
Techno difficulties fixed... The Nine's about to have Steve on!! They're discussing the Hunt and today's clue.
It was kind'a cute. Steve did a good job... If he knows what park, he's not telling!
just seen steve worthman on the 9 cool he was at highland then como
I'm disappointed I didn't get to see Steve. I talked to him on the phone and gave him the good news that the prize money was back again at $10,000. He's a nice guy and I sure do appreciate my signed copy of his book as well.

The least amount of clues is 0. It was found by accident before the hunt started by two love birds. It was taped to the underside of a bench.
Lillian, if you go to the coolercrew website, they have a list of hiding places/clues for many, many years. Check it out. You'll get a lot of useful information there.

Okay, posting is taking forever again. I'll have to check back later. Happy noodling.
Thanks Treasure Digger! I'll be back.

I believe you can see the Ford Plant stack and the VA stack from areas of Hidden Falls.
