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.

Hey All. I am wondering about the COMO thing. With this unusual weather, snow cover will be gone by the weekend. Add all of the activities and the crowds that come with them and it is simply a walk through the park to find it. It just seems like it would be somewhere else, especially considering paper sales are tied somewhat to when it is found.

Has anyone else noticed the apparent lack of the typical "stay of the golf courses" warning usually found within the first clue? Could this in itself be a tip?

llady, if there were a maplewood cop trying to escort me out of that end of battle creek i'd tell him where he could shove his nightstick. he might be a cop but has absolutely no jurisdiction in that end of the park. its in st. paul.

Who was talking about the guy Phalen was named after the other night? Something about murder.

Phalen. That was his name.

ya ares, I suppose if they got kicked out they were probably digging on the maplewood side.

Wed, 01/23/2002 - 9:09 AM Permalink

He was accused o'murder, but fled town - going west - and abandoned his claim to the land. That land in, what 1842?, then became Phalen park.
