You may be right Steve. Trying to maintain some optimism, but after last year, not sure if these people remember how to put together a challenging hunt. I suppose these people working in today's journalistic world are too accustomed to trying to appeal to the lowest common denominator and they don't want to make the clues too hard.
have no clue what thread we are discussing this in so here goes....
have ruled a few parks out from viewing the capitol dome - i went to harriet island and DID see the capitol dome from the far SE corner of the park - i went to LINWOOD and couldnt se squat - MLK park no dice unless you are on the school property - SWEDE HOLLOW yes you can see it - IMP yes you can see it duh!! - the nicest one I visited that had the best view of the dome was DUNNING FIELD....merriam park you cant see squat unless you climb a tree - there are several play lots where you can see the dome - carty is NOT one of them (atleast from where i stood) BOYD however ---hmmm not enough leaves and debris to ticlke my fancy----ARLINGTON - arkwright??? could be a possibility - havent checked it out - anyone else??
I'm not positive about it, but I think there are about 19 parks you can see the capitol from. Major parks anyway. Not sure about something like Summit Overlook Park.
Unless Buggs Bar has a photocopier that they let customers use, I think it would be faster to just buy one. Then you also get it nice and bound, clearly printed (including some of the tiny type that Steve uses for just that reason) and you're not violating any copyright laws.
Maybe I'll have to add Dunning Field to my list. I didn't think you'd be able to see it from there. Although it still strikes me as a not real likely place for it to be. I know you can't see anything really from the clear part of Arlington-Arkwright. You might possibly be able to see it from the south end where there are lots of woods, but that part's a dark and treacherous place to be at night and I can't believe they would put it there.
or Snail Lake looks good, Santa Dave thinks so too
I think the clue writer is being very shollow.
You finally drag yerself outta that there froggie pond Jake?
Shollow.....lovin yer consistancy!LOL!

It sounds so much better when you put it that way

randy rust
Snow Mommy if you want I will take a photocopy of mine for you
the guides are at ruminators on grand!! I dont knwo if the map guy steve will be out with books - he can answer that tho@!!
Randy Rust
you would photocopy the whole thing?
The guide is available at The Map Store in downtown St Paul. 111 E Kellogg Blvd, 651-227-6277 if Steve's not around.
Med2, check the right side of your screen.
Snow Mommy Ill copy the whole thing just let me know
You've been busy Randy!
biddy biddy biddy, Hey Buck!
Do I hafta ALWAYS wear pants?
Jake, thats illegal, there are copyright laws and don't think that Steve won't press them.
Well, if you fall for Carmelita the pants thing becomes optional.
Also thats a shitty thing to do to a fellow Crew member, especially Steve.
Snail Lake by the boat access/beach or Snail Lake by the high ridges or Snail Lake by 694/Victoria?
Just a nice lazy drive to work - had a 10 oclock appt so i "took my time" getting there!!
can frosti comeout and play tonight??
rrr

Jake, if you copy Steve's book for anyone, you will never be allowed in here again.
Steve should get paid for his hard work.
Unless Buggs Bar has a photocopier that they let customers use, I think it would be faster to just buy one. Then you also get it nice and bound, clearly printed (including some of the tiny type that Steve uses for just that reason) and you're not violating any copyright laws.

Mom! Randy wants to know if I can go and play!
Scribey, I have a few presents for you, too.
I'm sure no one ever intended to copy any part of the book without sending Steve a check.
It doesn't matter, copying that book will get you into a mess of legal trouble! I'll be the first to make sure of it!
