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.

Of course, COSBY was the KING of COMEDY I think it's at Merriam

We have either been right on top of it or what seems like miles. Some years you're there - an others you're not. It's just the way it is...but it's always fun!

It's supposed to be 50 this weekend, with all the snow gone, could be a quicker hunt than we all anticipated

Do you think be fair! and game to play has anything to do with the state fair?

Do any of you Ninjas know what parks the camera crew has been chilling at lately?

I think be fair and play games points to a ball field

still think they are the 2nd best team in the league behind the obvious but if they ever want to pass em they have to beat cupcakes like that not lose by 20

Welcome Kami! The lurkers are coming out of the woodwork! What took ya so long?

The fairgrounds and tv/radio towers are visible from Newell.

Crosby is right up there with Battle. I don't want it to be Battle, though.

I went to Crosby tonight - it wasn't that creepy. Also went to Mounds - great possibilities there. At Mounds, if you "knit your brows," you can se the "1" on the bank bldg downtown. Liked that tie-in a lot.

NEW DADDY To be honest with you I like highland, Mounds or Hidden Falls, I think I'll wait for the PP though first.

the fairgrounds is not a park, nor is it in st. paul

What do people think about Mounds vs Merriam???? Am interested in hearing....

Tonight is probably a road. We don't have one yet.

If you can see the 1st building, you are in the right park. On the air is a reference to KSTP

Does anyone know if you can see the No. 1 from Battle?

where is KSTP

Kami the Hunter

Newell Park doesn't have sledding hills right? Remember being out there before.... not a huge park....Work your legs....etc. don't see the tie in....

At Merrian there is a DOT trafic camera that is very high inthe air and broadcasts on the air I liked that more than a tower

My Dalliance

Destiny, I liked Mounds much more than Merriam. Merriam is very small and no real woods.

Wed, 01/23/2002 - 10:29 PM Permalink
Tom Kasprovich

KSTP broadcasts from the 1st building. Also, in the air means by the airport, which is probably Highland

theres an airport downtown, well not downtown, but by the river.

Wed, 01/23/2002 - 10:30 PM Permalink
Terry

What I like about Mounds vs. just about any park is the woods. Real woods...not just trees. I like the airport visible, the fact that the park is quite large for what everyone is hoping will be a long hunt.

I'm still keeping an open mind though. Don't want to make the clues fit the park, but let the clues lead the way.

Great noodlin' Tom! Adding to my notes . . . .

And yes, 1st building visible from Battle. I think all clue 3 did was rule out Como, Newell, and Phalen
