The Portland Rose Festival Treasure Hunt is a very popular program that began in 1983, and continued until 2005, then restarted in 2014. A Rose Festival Medallion is hidden on public property within the following five counties: Multnomah, Clackamas, Clark, Washington or Yamhill. Daily clues are offered to help hunters narrow down the location of the Treasure. These clues make reference to local history, as well as geography. Often they are so obscure that they generate lots of 'water cooler talk' among casual observers and hunters alike, as they try to decipher the meaning of clues!
