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 like como from the double thing hey hey etc.

I like BC cause of the kill thing

I like frostlake cause of the frost reference to time and tide.

Phalen is not very hilly and not very woodsy. that would be a tough fit.

teddy, have u updated that list yet?

RUN FAST, RUN HARD, STAY FOCUSED AND ON THE TRACK AS YOU CHASE YOUR DREAM......THEN RETIRE TO A NICE WARM COUCH......

Has anyone mentioned Crest Lane in reference to High Tide?! It is close to Pt. Douglas Rd, and A, B, and C streets near BC. There is also a Burns Ave (ignite-spark), and a Lyon St. Anybody know how to fit Time into BC as a site?

Janis - It's only the zoo area that's off limits. The rest of the park is still huntable (well, minus the conservatory and around the slide and other carnival activities.)

BC sounds very viable- don't like the phalen idea.

agree.

we need to focus on streets AROUND the parks, not just streets that border the parks. Same goes when looking for references.

Formerly Known as JC-There are a lot, but only a few like this!! Merriam Rec Center fits best so far. Has a parking lot, on-street parking, community center on site, and get this:a 2-way communications radio antenna(in the treasure hunters guide) can be seen from the ballfields! Clue #4 hey,hey,OK,OK -done 2ways. What do you think?

BC off of winthrop sure does fit VERY well. I was there yesterday and saw the trails were going to be closed this weekend though. I guess I'm stuck on that.

Mommy- BC's trails are in the woods...which we were told to stay out of.

A, B & C streets may refer to the clue saying about in & on the air.......a network station......also the signs themselves

Snow mommy - the ski trails go thru the woods at BC and the clue states to stay away from the woods. The rec center is at the bottom of the hill (no woods), playground, school, skating rink, ball fields, parking lot.
