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.

Good Morning!

I can't say anything came to me in slumber last night regarding these clues. I think it'll take another one or two before things start making sense to any great degree.

I was over at Phalen exploring zone 4 last night before clue #4 came out. However, I'm not really convinced about it. I was so unconvinced at the time that I didn't even bring a shovel.
