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.

Baker looks interesting. Would be moreso if it had a parking lot.

and the park must have been updated recently-I guess I have always known there is a playground at the top of the hill at Page but do not seethat on the map either (?)

think the word "wreck" means, (def.- a poor mental state), as in "you're a wreck" It is directed to the clue reader.

"Take your wreck to the park n rec..."

jakeinge

this is Me2-Jake is asleep on my floor---Merriam had about 15-20 people after the clue came out and drizzled down to 6 after we both headed back-that was about 1:30.

From the map, looks like not much digging room at MLK.

Lawson and Rice Rec is also near the salvage yards

Marley - Thought about MLK more for nostalgia sake when it fit for a few of the early clues when it was at Harriet Island in '96.

WOW!! Look at the size of that JOE!!

I didn't even plan it. ;)

Being the conserivitive aptly named hunter I am, I have to go with Merrian as my Favorite so far (even though thats a little too liberal for me;), and I guess I still like Highland allot for it's the founder park, and you know how much we wright wingers love our founders, lol.

Hey jake, is the rumor true, that you were at "mounds"?

Thu, 01/24/2002 - 3:07 AM Permalink
Marleyking

I only have 2 pics of MLK, can't tell much-looks rather flat, has a playground, couple benches, not sure what else

Sylvan could be good. Is there a radio tower visible from there?

Nice Joe CM!

Parking is bad for MLK as well. No real ideas, just daydreaming of all the back-breaking digging a lot of people did at that park that year. I'm a bit older and wiser now.

Thanks MK
