Just got back from Cherokee, all of the clues point there, the three pyramids are on top of the bathrooms. We think its there, but it is tough digging.

When people refer to Ivy, are they referring to Ivy Hills? Isn't that in Mendota Heights? If that's the one, there is nothing there. Where is there another Ivy?

Searcher- It runs right along the river also by pigseye lake rd. and meets with warner rd near the railroad tracks.

Cherokee is full of people. I think all the snow has been turned over everywhere. The places that it's not is very tough digging... really packed down hard.

OK everyone get a grip. Quit trying to read too much into the clues. Last year at this time, the same thing happened on this board. People started to doubt it was at Como and it was so obviouse just like this year. Its deffinately at Cherrokee, and there is a lot of land out there to move snow on. its in the middle of some field at Cherrokke. so get out there and look for it. if I didn't have toddler sick i'd be out there instead of trying to set all of you straight. Its a big park and could be anywhere in there right now.

Anyone back from Indian Mounds Park? Is it thick with people, or have they given up there.

Amen Keast, people don't be so naive, get to Cherokee before it's too late.

If it's not ay Cherokee, it's at Cherokee. Tonights clue will, may just say Cherokee and we still won't know where to dig.

Catch 22

I am off to cherokee. I still like the idea of the binocs on the High Bridge. Going to start there and work back toward sledding hill. Could the "pace" in the last clue mean it is in a pace picante jar?

Once a Mounder always a Mounder, or have some of you converted to Cher?

Master, your childhood exists and so does the park. But it really doesn't matter because it's in Cherokee.
