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.

something in the air and on the air? a windsurfer? could be. I'm personally holding out for a tv or radio antenna, but that doesn't mean you're wrong. I can make the clues fit phalen.

I still think it's gonna be a rec center.

LL, I was all over the island in zone 4 last night, didn't see a thing. I had a feeling about that Lions Club fire pit.

Can I ask what everyone decifers as the time and tide clue? We thought it might be the river(mississippi) cause obviously lakes do not have tide. Also I'm thinking TV brodcast station that you can see from the park..

BC seems to fit but I can't get over the ski events there this weekend. The sign there says the trails will be closed to the public.

as for sledding, there is a rather long, though shallow, slope at phalen, running from wheelock pkwy and phalen drive down towards the beach.

I went to Phalen.. I don't know about it yet, but I'll sure keep it on my list.

I can make most of the clues fit in and around zone 2 exept the lion one, starting to think maybe i'm wrong about the fire pit.

First message,

Has it ever been hid at Saint Anthony Park? It seems to be the closest to the KSTP radio/tv transmission tower which fits on the air. It is also close enough to the fair that you can see the space needle.

There are some dense woods and sliding hills there.

I'm gonna check it out at lunch unless someone tells me that park is in Mpls or something.

Could the "Look for something in and on the air" refer to airplanes-near highland?
