I am really liking Como for this hunt, but I don't want it to be there...parking can be a nightmare, and with all the events they've got going out there....
Still have a couple runner ups that will probably be proven wrong in the next couple clues.
Gotta work today, but hoping to get out of there early....it would be nice to get to a park in the *daylight*!
Have a super day, all - and happy digging to those of you who are able to get out there!
If anyone wants a nice easy to read list of the parks in St. Paul broken down by size you can grab it here (just cut and paste address into browser)---> ftp://hunt:hunt@63.229.205.194/
I went to Rice, Mounds, Highland, MLK, Harriet Isl. and even out by the capitol last night and nothing looked promising.... any ideas on where it is yet?
It just took me about 45 minutes to, I believe the work is "slog" through all the messages since midnight.
Looks like Como was a clear winner in last night's discussion. Also some mention of Harriet. Does anyone have a clear take on which might be the stronger choice?
i'd lay 1/2 the medallion on that it is either at phalen or como. i hate como so i'm sticking w/ phalen. i have every clue fitting w/ phalen. yesterday's man of steel is sketchy, but johnson (lyndon b) fills the mettle.
It seems like every year we want it to be at Como...but I just don't see it. Doesn't everyone agree that Clue #4 means it's on the East Side or West Side?
Leads me to Mounds Park now (all those "circular" burial mounds) on the East Side.
Haven't posted since the hunt in '98. See you out there!
As I pulled into the driveway at 3:15 AM... What came on the radideeo, but "Hotel Coolerfornia"!
Ittiz, it was so good to read you! Miss you bunches! Somebuddy slipped my your Medallion!
There was NO buddy out digging last nite; very very few folks. And while #6 still fits Battle Creek...I just don't know... I think the situation's normal: I need to join Bee in The Frog Pond! LOL!!!
Clue 1 Go through the cold and prepare to be bold, Or you won't find the secret item. Our beloved St. Paul is the place for gold; Dig elsewhere and you'll search ad infinitum.
Last year at Newell our fate was most cruel; Unfortunately the game ended too soon. Come now and prepare for a much tougher duel; Keep on your toes or you'll hunt until June. the first letters of each line spell out "GOOD LUCK." There appears to be something more to the first clue than usual, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.
Clue 2 There's no need to destroy as you deploy For the hunt in our wonderful town. Golf courses and statues you must not annoy, And please steer clear of all private ground. It's likely that they are just stretching out the obvious clues this year so they get well beyond last year's seven.
Clue 3 Circular thinking can be one way of linking To the treasure that lies out of view. Your bank account won't be shrinking If you can figure out this clue. The first real meaty clue.
Clue 4 East and west are part of our test, Though only one is the proper place. If this choice leaves you depressed, Playing might put a smile on your face.
Clue 5 A man of steel cannot be real, But another has plenty of mettle. Look for his name around our deal, And you'll be in very fine fettle.
To escape the herd find a peaceful bird Somewhere deep in the snow. Our treasure is boxed inside the word, And that's what you need to know.
Clue 6 The prize is at a place with lots of space Where riding around can be fun But you'll have to move off base If you hope to be the victorious one
hey green , still leaning how to work this thing but i have been an avid hunter for two years. i have been within five feet of where the darned thin was found two years in a row!!!!!!
Keep at it, Pennie... Oh! And looking for The Med, too! :D
We'll help you thru leaning how to navigate in The Cooler. Ittiz not hard, but can be a titch confusing until you get the hang o'it. And remember... We were all new here once!
I've been close to The Med, but not as close as some here. This izz my 4th year. But it seems like my first. Every year seems like my first! And the first one (Chair-O-Key) seems like it was just last week...
morning green..came soooo close the year it was magnetized to the mail box...was on my knees about to search around under the box and some guy said you cant do that it's federal property...it was probably that person that got it..:(
Joe sucks, ya'll should be tryin to get a Shaggs.
Yeah, Joe Momma sux.

Nope...no ideas yet. I don't know...this 6th clue is more vague than I had wanted it to be...what do you think?
well well well are we stummped??? were is valley park and why do you think it might be there???
well, well, well, they got you stumped? so were is valley park? and why do you think it's there?? and what other parks are we looking at???
Good Morning! Is anyone still on?
It just took me about 45 minutes to, I believe the work is "slog" through all the messages since midnight.
Looks like Como was a clear winner in last night's discussion. Also some mention of Harriet. Does anyone have a clear take on which might be the stronger choice?
Jokysu..Hidden Falls?
Guideman is on KQ right now.
They're in Como Park. Sounds like several people are digging out there.
Sorry I didn't respond right away, I am chasing a toddler around my house this morning.
What are all the clue matches for Como Park?
Hi all, this last clue really sucks, move off base ????????
One thought for move off base would be NOT on a baseball field.
still sucks
i'd lay 1/2 the medallion on that it is either at phalen or como. i hate como so i'm sticking w/ phalen. i have every clue fitting w/ phalen. yesterday's man of steel is sketchy, but johnson (lyndon b) fills the mettle.
Good Morning folks- is anyone going to Como today?
leah, i'm going to phalen. no one else is online right now.
is move off base another reference to steel?
IT'S F***ING SNOWING OUTSIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
leah i think i'm gonna take a trip to como at lunch. at least there'll be some nice virgin snow to dig :)
It seems like every year we want it to be at Como...but I just don't see it. Doesn't everyone agree that Clue #4 means it's on the East Side or West Side?
Leads me to Mounds Park now (all those "circular" burial mounds) on the East Side.
Haven't posted since the hunt in '98. See you out there!
it's getting interesting - they're saving the exact park for late in the game. Allison, any new noodles? Still thinking Valley?
Good Marning!
