Well I know back in 58 they put it in the ice in the lake at Phalen and dumped milk on it.. to reference that clue w/the milky way or something like that...
I agree Lisa n Amy's Mommy, but they have never hidden it in the same thing twice ever, I could see that they used the same park twice so closely together, but I don't see them doing that with what it is hidden in.
But strangers things have happened, I'll never say never
That's the first thing I got out of the clue too, that it was hidden with the assumption there would be little/no snow, so I think we can rule out a Merriam out in the middle of nowhere and count in it being not in plain view
It says water is frozen could be a drinking fountian that don't work. Does not mean neccesarly ice. can't rule out non lake parks yet. But you can rule out parks without paths.
ty - It's one I think I'll use for the hunt each year.
I need to type up that park pick list. I'll post it here and make up a site for it too. As far as those who weren't at the PDG - there was no way of including you in the initial picks since you would have needed to be there to pick in order. You can still get in on it if there are no objections. I'm not sure if people will be OK with it or not since there are 2 clues listed already.  Anybody? The way we worked it so there would be a winner no matter what was to give the last person who's name was picked to guess get to have the rest of the areas not already picked. PayMe got the lot on that deal. Sorry Wicked Nick :-(
But if others were allowed to pick parks all it would do was decrease PayMe's list which would still be OK. Anybody want to add something?
Roseville is in Ramsey County and so is in the running until we hear it's a St. Paul park.
That would also mean Maplewood is open to hunting - but that's a question we didn't think to ask the clue writers if that suburb was still off the list because of threatened lawsuits.Â

Snow we have missed much, this not very white Christmas But the ice has come to stay The water's quite frozen at this park we have chosen Along its paths you may while time away
The water's quite frozen at this park we have chosen
hmmm. if it were an ice rink, there wouldn't be water to begin with. That makes it sound like "natural" water. Does that make sense, or I am over tired?
downtown dave - thanks bunches!
oh for cryin out loud, big deal itf it's at como, I'd search there just as much as I'd search anywhere else.
Still likin Beaver Lake though, hope I didn't mess myself up with that jaunt I took out there on Thursday...
Not likely an ice rink I don't think with paths around it.
Well I know back in 58 they put it in the ice in the lake at Phalen and dumped milk on it.. to reference that clue w/the milky way or something like that...
while away the time=zone=central park roseville?
in ice?
nah, a path along a stream or a lake sounds good to me. Fits with where I think it might be....
It was just in ice 2 years ago at Como, I highly doubt they would encase it in ice again, at least so soon
Either that or it'll be stuck in a block of ice, burried in the snow, by a lake...
Mikey, You are just wrong.
It only says around it's (the parks)Â paths we chosen. It don't say the path is around water.
If the medallion was hidden prior to snow...and remember we had some ice storm on New Year's Day...it could very well be encased in ice.
I might just go out tomorrow. Supposed to me nice out I guess.
it's saying there was no snow so it's in ice

I will have to say goodnight - I'll be back at 4:30 to slog, and post any wild ideas I come up with :).
I need another clue....

Cool pic Clue Master !

SCD's Mom!
Goodnight Mom! SCDs!
Me thinks I'm gonna "sleep noodle"
Boy has jazz band practice at 6:00 AM- eewww
For the paths, maybe- CC ski paths?
well I'm off to bed... 5am comes waaaay too early.
fine with me if someone wants in as long as you have the money. You gonna post the list somewhere?
[Edited by Michele30 on Jan 23, 2005 at 09:38pm.]
MCL Mom- nitey nite, all!
Good night all. Good luck hunting
Do any of the new treasure hunters books have detailed maps of Central Park? I think that it is very much a possibility.
Â
Goodnight and SCDs, KT!
well all I'm off to bed... 5am comes waaay too early. Take care all!
The THG covers only St. Paul.Â
Ramsey County parks has a book and a website.
The paths around beaver lake are paert of the battlecreek system I beleive. Have to check on that..
as long as you have the money
That would need to be a given. I'll be at the PP every night if we decide to add any names.
I'll post the list here in a bit.
I believe what it's hidden in is decided upon taking into account weather conditions at the time of the drop.
okay, nix the cross country ski paths idea.. Como, Phalen, and Highland golf course are it for actual "groomed" trails
Battle creek has CC ski trails
oooh, yeah, BC's mountain bike trails are used for cc skiing in winter.
Roseville is in Ramsey County and so is in the running until we hear it's a St. Paul park.

They adressed that last year. Maplewood is in
Too bad it didn't say "banks" instead of paths. Then we would know it was referring to a lake not artificial ice.
You just might have something there, 3m.Â
I'm heading for the covers. Goodnight, SCDs and happy noodling!

Okay that does it, I'm gonna try to look in the area I saw those people at beaver lake, since it's the best lead I got so far (if a bit shaky)
