icm - yeah, I think the zones are in the guide. I don't have one, which is a total bummer.

icm, I have every other clue pegged to another park except clue number eight. Normally they try to showcase a park that has had alot of changes done to it. Has Como had any major facelifts or rennovations?

reg, i thought zone 4 by the west entrance.

I'm guessing it'll be up in the picnic area south of the mini-golf perhaps. Definately needs to be away from the slide and snow sculptures, won't be in the ball fields where it was in '96, needs to be nearer the amusement park rides (riding around can be fun)

icm, I sent the B-squad to Como. The A-squad is searching in another spot. Just trying to cover our basis.

King Boreas aka Ian

Okay, I'm in denial, but....

we drove through Como today and the place was packed, but VERY few were hunters. What is that park going to be like with hundreds more trying to park/drive etc.

and I know what Clue # it is, but this is just too friggin' easy ??

At the parking lot?

Sun, 01/28/2001 - 1:09 AM Permalink
SueBee

Ian, easy?!! There are only 3 clues left (I don't really count the last that walks you to the spot) and we JUST got the park - and a big one to boot. Hardly easy, if you ask me.

Regg Man.. im not new.. i just lurk alot.. ive been here.. for 2 years.. and i know all about the frog pond.. now i should really go before someone else finds it.. *poof*

good night folks

most of the previous clues are just trying to get us to think of the park, not really pinpointing a location. There are only a few clues left that'll do that. This is kind of like Cherokee - we knew the park in 7, but not the right location until late in the game. Tons of people with theories, but it took until the end for the big W to show up

Ares, See you at the Parking Lot off of midway inhe middle of Zone 4

Sun, 01/28/2001 - 1:11 AM Permalink
kitty

O.K. zone #7 is lexington until the circular parking entrance into the lake side pavilion. Then along the lake until gateway dr. and churchill runs north and south thru the southern half which turns into West Como blvd. In zone 7 there is a WW2 submarine torpedo an old bridge and the first parks dept. building. Of course there is the biking and walking trails.

Hey :) This clue tells you where it is! My gut feeling all along..and I know where to dig!

icm, If the B-squad finds it they move up. But if my hunch is correct the A-squad will be in the right place. C and D will be replacing A and B in the morning. Good Luck.

Whats up late nighters......just trying to interpret your zone areas....just b cuz all these things correlate it doesnt say which area it could be in... thay are all a block away of each other...

SueBee

thanks kitty

Sun, 01/28/2001 - 1:13 AM Permalink
SueBee

hound - my guess is that we don't REALLY know where in the park yet, just stay away from the slide and the snow sculptures for sure. Don't even need a clue for that one

Sun, 01/28/2001 - 1:14 AM Permalink
SueBee

ok, I really am going now. Nite all
