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.

For those who are interested in my analysis, how far back do you want me to go? Do you want me to analyze all the hunts, back through the 80's, through the 70's, etc?

I am getting ready for the hunt by being right here with all of you in my freezing basement! Our computer/family room is down here--We remodeled and fixed up our basement with sheetrock and carpeting but havn't had time to put in the heating system sooooooo brrrrrrrrr! I have my hot "drinks" and hand warmers going every time I talk with you all, getting ready for being out in the snow!

Kids, uh . . . yeaahhh! But, that's a really big job. Are you doing all the clues or picking up from Clues 5 on?

TMkids I'd say the past 10 years. The hidder and clue writer has probable changed over the years...

Okay, okay. Past 10 years. Has anyone noticed how each line of the clues (what's that called -- meter or something?) almost doubled in length around '91-93. Indication of a new clue writer?
