2002 Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt

Submitted by Casey Trauer on

Yes, the medallion has been found, but there's still lots to talk about. Feel the need for more than virtual discussion? Then join the Re-Hash Bash, Sunday, Jan. 27, at noon at Merriam Park in St. Paul.

    Clue 2 talks about trees and hills: newell has both Clue 3 uses the phrases "im game" (newell has a baseball field), "on and in air" (there is a radio tower visible from newell) and "fair game" (Newell is on Fairview rd)

    the island (site of the 86 ice palac) is down the hill, away from the woods, across from the golf course (think fairway), you can see the sphere and tip of the church on 61 across from the golf course at several points on the island....of course, this could also describe locations in a lot of other parks. right now i'm leaning towards phalen probably because i know that park better than any of the others.

    I just got back from Phalen. After being there I'm not placing it there as easy. A film crew was out there though. You can't see anything in the sky from where I was thinking. (down by the fire pit.) There were some other hunters out there.

    "tip" may be referring to the championship tees at a golf course. That would help the leads to Phalen

    Do you think they would put it an Newell again so soon?

    "Last year at Newell, our fate was most cruel" Even the cluewriter didn't like the fact that it was over so quick.
