Clue #1 You've joined the hunt for the regal runt
To prove searching does pay
Don't dig a hole or knock down a pole
And the golf course is out of play
Last year Jake took home the cake
With a clue a bit off level
This year we'll rinse off all our prints
Lest this hunt go to the devil
Clue #2 The point of all this is so that you won't miss
Your big chance to grab all the cash
Now gather your guys and a gal who is wise
You'll have to do something quite rash
Clue #3 We've scanned the county to hide our bounty
And keep you on your toes
It may sound risible, but our puck's invisible
Although it might just stick to your nose.
Clue #4 How fun is the snow how far will we go
You really ought to go see
Get up for the mission and not just the wishin'
Get into the game-it's all free
Clue #5 There once was a clue that drove you-know-who
To threaten a heinous act
We'd use it again but we're afraid of his pen
My friend, that's an unfortunate fact
Clue #6 All ye who look should honor the book
As one who stood for hope
Much was built in the name of the kilt
Look sharp now and never mope
Clue #7 If you should go look high then low
One could see it from a bower
If it's your bent you might seek a tent
To protect in case of shower
Take note of the wood and do what you should
To extract the prize for yourself
Build a bridge to your dreams as high as they seem
Leave nothing behind on the shelf
Clue #8 Look at the buck to acquire good luck
In finding the grail this year
Link a jar,a line, a star lawyer divine
While crying in your beer
He won, then lost and the nation was tossed
Into strife that was far from civil
The point I'm making is yours for the taking
Believe me - not the message board drivel
Clue #9 This name brings tears, elation and cheers
And occasionally even outrages
It sits on walls and rides the halls
And fills a dozen pages
The hills are alive and you'll have arrived
Refrain from the very injurious
Be bold and be brave but your skin you must save
What's off-limits should frankly be obvious
Clue #10 Look for the sight you hope is just right
You're doubtful and you're torn
Make the rounds for what rhymes with grounds
And part of a rose with a horn
Through flames and flow this park where you'll go
Is the site of sacred relics
Stay away from these and the cliffs if you please
Or you'll be in a heckuva fix
Clue #11 Air and river sounds lead all to Mounds
Far from the graves take your entourage
Twixt Burns and Thorn, an icy pathway is born
Across Mounds from a gray house and tan garage
Hell no fury hath as those on the wrong path
Mounds and Warner form a woodsy perimeter
The path not official contains footprints beneficial
Some 300 trudges in - quest for a quitter
This trail you must follow goes down a narrow hollow
Under a fallen tree to an old rusted drum
From here you must search for a hillside path perch
Wherein lies the center of fun

Good luck!
Does anybody remember a GGG at one of the parks. I just noticed Gather. Guys, Gals. I seam to remember somewhere having a ggg but I can't remember it now. Might just be a flash back to wide as EEE
When you look at the aerial of Keller and compare it with Phalen I would say that there might even be more land to search at Keller!
Leaning toward Phalen, but I never like to commit this early. :wink:
But I do know of more than one case where people hide because they are not supposed to be online at work, and on the off-chance that their boss and some other hunter might make the connection, they stay hidden.
really weird spot for it, and I forget every year.
Anyone going out hunting this afternoon? Maybe tomorrow morning, I don't start classes till after lunch tomorrow.
Otherwise tomorrow morn for sure.
Clue 6
Published on Jan. 30, 2004
Take your bow, don't aim low,
Be steady on your feet
Take a stand with your fiery band
And prepare for the coming defeat
Explanation: Street clues and topographical hints. "Don't aim low" refers to medallion's location just down from a ridge and "stand" to the trees where the medallion is hidden. Band, bow and stand suggests Sherwood Forest of Robin Hood and his merry band, which in turn leads you to Sherwood Avenue near the park. The park is one of few to have an archery range. Coming defeat suggests failin' - the aural equivalent of Phalen.
by the by - it's a fantastic story, and I'm not just saying that cause I performed in it :cool:
Clue 9
Published on Feb. 2, 2004
Go take a risk, we threw the disk
Where it seems you're far from succeedin'
Unless you are blind, the treasure you'll find
Among plants that are unfit for weedin'.
Explanation: Throwing the disk conjures ``frisbee,'' which leads to nearby Frisbie Street. Far from succeedin' would be again be "failin.'" Blind refers Helen Keller, whose last name is part of Phalen-Keller Regional Park. Not fit for weedin' puts you near the medallion hidden by a wildflower area.
when you are in that new window then there is a hidden/showing option on the bottom.
been wondering how you been!!!!
I like the stick to your nose = spoon reference.
but let's just say they are jerking our chains to send us somewhere it isn't in the first few clues (since we all seem to dig a really good hunt)
and instead - stick to your nose, is perhaps bubble gum, in a bubble gum tape dispenser or something.
I have this sinking feeling they aren't giving us that much still.
it's not my fault you can't follow such obviously superior intellect.

Maybe the medallion is in the shape of a snowflake this year?
maybe i will drive by c0m0 and see jake and snodgrass :smile: needing some lunch anyway - good time to run to nelsons...
       I think he is trying to lead us to thinking of gum vs spoon
