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.

I'm not going to PP, if I get something from the clue, I could go out then.

I have no real ideas, I've been to 10 parks, big and small, nothing stands out.

I'd like to see it at

Hidden Falls or Crosby

donna...I agree...iusually wouldn't plan on going out tonight...but the snow cover is SO poor that I think it may be found early due to the fact that the snow barely covers any sort of object under it...without raising suspicion of course

Ian...do you think it is possible that since the s entrance to HF is closed that it could be there?? it would take a bit longer to get to that end of the park...

Steve said it's always closed, and don't consider that area of the park.

I started walking that way, and while it wasn't a long distance, it just didn't feel right. You can walk through the locked gate though.

GREEN:

Consider the turnout at McGovern's, and think about all the new people since then. I'm not kidding, I can see 300-500 at the Re-Hash.

It is not going to be at Newell Park again......it was just there two years ago.....too soon. It is not at Como either.....it was there last year. As far as the fairgrounds goes, it is considered "private property", so it won't be there either. I agree with what is out on University Avenue near the U of M St. Paul campus. I was at BC and MP tonight, and it just doesn't seem right for some reason. Too easy. Although, it hasn't been at Phalen for a looooooong time, but it certainly won't be on a golf fairway (not after what happened to the Phalen course the last time it was there). Tomorrow's clue should be a good one!!

No user inform…

It's not at the State Fair Grounds, we heard that patrol officers were telling people that it is privately owned and not there.

what does "knit yourt brows" mean anyway?

Hmm,

Can somebody give me EVIDENCE (newspaper citation, eyewitness) that they said they would NEVER hide it at Mounds again? I have heard it said many times.

I started looking in 1992, so I am not familiar with what happened in 1987.

Somebody give me a real answer please?
