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

Opposite of Violent J, I am 100% sure it is in Cherokee. There is not even a morsel of doubt in my mind. Doubt me, please doubt me. It will make it that much more fun when I find it. Tired, goodnight. SCD's MCL yadda yadda yadda
:smile:
Stu is searching at Merriam. He says there is a code that brought him there.
This is always good schtick when Stu is on. I had to sit through 2 hours and 10 min of Soucheray to get to this call. I am suffering for our hunt.
Here it is... the first Harriet reference in the Invitational thread...

I quit here : /comment/386612#comment-386612
If anyone else has it in them to try...
I talked with an assistant to a professor at UMD (I think) who was searching for some papers that turned out not to be in our collections.... UofM forensics say its not Charlie ... weve been searching for him for years.
2003:
The coldest star will guide you far
2008:
How fun is the snow how far will we go
We already have that the coldest star is the star of the north, from the 2003 explanation. If the only reason they aren't using the clue again is they are afraid of Soucheray's pen, that means it's applicable but still a pretty big stretch. Go north from the French School, but how far away from a reference will they go? Phalen is north of the school, but it's quite far.
If you go straight north from the school, you would find yourself in the center of Bald Eagle-Otter Lake Park...
less of a stretch than red white and blue meaning a French flag.
I've been out and about the past few days, getting stuff for my house-sitter/handyman to install a new bathroom floor and a new faucet in the bathroom sink.
Car is loaded, except for last-minute stuff. I'll be outa here in the AM. If I have any ooompf left when I get to town, I will come out and play tomorrow night.
first time hunter finds medallion in the middle of the frog pond
"I brought my windshield scraper out there and two minutes later the medallion popped out"
We'll see what tonight's clue gives us.
I am hoping we get a more definate park clue before the weekend.
I have been looking at a lot of places, actually. I don't really like a lot of the parks that people have been posting about, but I am keeping my eye on them.
Just give it up. Ittiz Chair-O-Key.
Now. Whutchew think iz gonna be next year's park?
