No they wouldn't. That's the problem with people not respecting property. It's also partially the clue writer's fault with the "where the sun don't shine" clue. It's making dumb arses think it's underground.

AT this point in every hunt, the PP should go to several parks and post rules about what NOT to do. Could save us dedicated hunters the embarassment of being in the mix.

Actually, if people would just use that gray matter parked between the ears, nothing would get destroyed. I have noticed that those outlet covers on the lamp posts had been removed already - and for what? Look under them if you must - but why take them off!?!?!?

I was in that sand all day on Saturday.

It behooves every single one of us, as Cooler Heads and lovers o'the Hunt, to explain to people when we see them destory that they are jeopardizing the hunt for not only themselves, but for others.

While you may laugh, it truly, truly is our duty. There's nobuddy that loves and wants this Hunt to continue more than we do.

I've done it - told folks to behave. (At Conway, when some idiots were climbing on the roof of this shed/parks building or something - and all three of them were twice my size!) And I'll do it again.

I'm side-by-side with Ter. Don't ever let *me* catch someone destroying. I will never allow this Hunt to be jeapordized. Ever.

Well, my guess is those same people are greatful for our insight. If we keep saying its at Powderhorn Park, I'll guarantee that it will get destroyed because these people lurk.

Damn, East! You've been right out there all this time! Hate to see you have to quit when we're so close. :(

Maybeee you're comin' down with somethin' and can't make it in tomorrow... You're lookin' a bit pale...

Hey Map Guy,

I completely forgot all about Powderhorn Park. I don't think anyone has looked there yet for the medallion! I wonder how the clues would fit for that park?? hum... something to think about.

Off to noodle about Powderhorn.

Ummm, I was at Hi, approached a Camo Crew pair, inquired about the wildflower/grasses digging. They assured me they spoke w/ the parks board who informed them they encourage the raking (NOT POST-HOLE DIGGING) of those areas. Apparently, in order to promote healthy, natural prairie, the seeds must be scattered, and then in early spring, the park&rec will actually burn those areas.But you already knew that, right?

TT's married to MJ, but I think he's pretty clueless and in the dark. MJ would beee the better o'the two to ask.

I wang chung-noodled something else... How 'bout this: The 1st clue makes a fairly obvious inference to the Cooler Crew. They also twice call IT "the puck" ...A CC nickname. The "Gab aloud with the hunting crowd" Could it be interpreted as "Shoot the breeze with the Cooler Crew"????

Well, while things are slow here... I'll toss this out.

I know you guys think I'm nutz, but about the parking lot - the kind'a round/oval one - at HI... *Have* the corners of this lot been skritched into with a rake? Anybuddy out there that works/has worked at a fast food joint and had to clean the parking lot will know what I'm talking about. Ma Nature just has this way of piling things up in the corners.

And who'd think to look there? Because everybuddy's looking for The Med placed by a human... What better place than a spot that occurs naturally and just blends in?

    well, usually, when someone says "hi yourself", its got negative connotations behind it. no offence intended.
