Nightly Pre-Clue Get-Together 

354 Wabasha St N
Saint Paul, MN 55102-1418, US&cid=lfmaplink2&name=&dtype=s\">Map of 354 Wabasha St N
Saint Paul, MN 55102-1418, US 

Matty B\'s is the home of the Cooler Crew. We\'ve got a party going on every evening from 8 until the clue is released. Sunday night, if the hunt goes that long, the bar will be open but food will not be available. 

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

Just got back from crusing the parks..

4 U people that were thinking about Tamarack Nature Center @ 5287 Otter Lake Road in White Bear Township.....It is listed as a Ramsey County Regional Park.

Nothing seems to fit except on the wooden sign there is a carving of an egert.

So we're thinking in all of Hidden Falls, Jake really did stumble across it on the 3rd clue? I mean I would believe that Jake of all people would actually be out there looking already, but to find it so quickly with so little to go on as to where in the park to look?

Well, it looks like post-hunt depression is setting in earlier this year. Should have got that prescription filled.

If any of us were going to find it we all knew he had the cards stacked in his favor. A gigantic congratulations to Jake if he did in fact find the 'actual' medallion and not a copy. In a way I hope it is the real thing since I'm still bummed to this day on finding a fake out on Harriet Island years ago. Even if I did get to experience the thrill of finding it.

Way To Go Brother!!! :cool: :cool:

This would be the earliest it's been found right?

If so, this could spell the end of the way the hunt is conducted going forward. Things will need to change big time.

Well, shit.

Ditto here, Allison. Today was my last day of work before 24/7 Hunting.

I knew it was in that vicinity. Not xactly where Jake found it, but I knew it was where the "nature lovers" abutted - around there. Figured it would be closer to Hidden Falls since it was just at Crosby. But would have taken me longer to find it as I don't know the area.

This just SUCKS!!! But at least it was a die-hard hunter, well deserving of finding It. Great for Jake he made history with beating the record, but bummer for us. THREE EFFIN' CLUES!!!

Christ. Now ittiz a whole year. Shit.
