Clues:
Clue No. 1 (Sunday, Jan. 21)
Welcome ice and snow and temperatures low
There’s no time for cold feet!
For searchers’ pleasure we’ve parked the treasure
Where nature lovers each other greet
Clue No. 2 (Monday, Jan. 22)
Boreas\' vast realm can overwhelm
Even diggers used to the long haul
So here\'s advice to put your hunt on ice:
Look no farther than good old St. Paul
Clue No. 3 (Tuesday, Jan. 23)
Hunters can be surly but in clue-time it’s early
Be safe, friends, and in the hunt revel
Near land that is high the treasure is nigh
Vagueness rules and that’s on the level

Three are other ways in, but aren't those gates closed too? Too many people hunt at night to be in a park that closes at 9.
The highest elevation within the City of St. Paul is 1,070 feet
above sea level at Hillcrest Golf Course. The lowest elevation is
approximately 687 feet above sea level in the Mississippi River floodplain.
(CROSBY THE LOWEST)...I'D BET...
The long haul really sticks out to me with that park.
1) the clues don't tell us jack, until we know where we're heading; and we're too early in the clues to know precisely that.
2) be safe could well be a reference to similar features as como 03 and phalen 04's hiding places. another mosh pit anyone?? swede hollow would be a good place to have another dangerous hunt like that.
3) near land that is high says its in low land compared to the surroundings, and could well be a red herring to get people to highland.
4) vagueness rules. same old same old. clues are too vague until we get something tangible to work with.
no wonder the donuts were gone.
It's also vague where the line between Hidden Falls and Crosby is.
"You want to get people confused a little bit," he said. "No matter where we put the treasure, I always wanted to throw in a clue about the High Bridge so we'd get people looking around the High Bridge."
Todays clue?? Boxmyer?? red herring??

These generic hints really do help rule out some parks, or at least areas of parks. Mostly, what I want to know, is this an unimproved park with minimal facitilies (like Crosby)--and thus the "nature" reference, or is it a developed park with nature areas, (like Mounds).
Mounds does have high and low, it does have natural areas (the lower part is restored prairie), etc. It also has a playground. That's one of the ways it isn't Crosby or Hidden Falls.
Not really anything anybody doesn't know or do--just looking forward to some way to eliminate a few areas. It's so much better than trying to include things!
THe rules on off limits have been to me vague to say the least. i.e. if youread it wrong you may assume all of highland is off limits etc. or all of como.
vague could have a 'hidden' meaning to it as well - i like all the construction ties with level etc. too :smile:
fun times - tonight should be a good one to elimiate parks as DD said :smile:
nice noodle!
Which ties in to "be safe" ... as in with the criminal justice system... lock 'em up in jail... kops, firemen
nice noodling evildoer
w00t
loving highland at the moment
heh
In case you haven't heard from the king of the hunt frontier, Randy Rust. I am big ole' knocked up. Due March 2nd.
I wasn't even going to show my face, because I have MAJOR sour grapes, but even my hubby says I should come noodle.
He knows it's my thang.
So that is what I will do.
And maybe call in sick after clues 10 and 11.

The goof in me wants to think there’s someone with the surname “Vagueness”. Peter Vagueness, CPA. He keeps a Burger King crown on his porch. I bet he lives near the Southwest corner of the park on one edge of a hill… and if you stand near his house you can eyeball the other side perfectly where a U-Haul location just opened up.
