Clue #1 You've joined the hunt for the regal runt
To prove searching does pay
Don't dig a hole or knock down a pole
And the golf course is out of play
Last year Jake took home the cake
With a clue a bit off level
This year we'll rinse off all our prints
Lest this hunt go to the devil
Clue #2 The point of all this is so that you won't miss
Your big chance to grab all the cash
Now gather your guys and a gal who is wise
You'll have to do something quite rash
Clue #3 We've scanned the county to hide our bounty
And keep you on your toes
It may sound risible, but our puck's invisible
Although it might just stick to your nose.
Clue #4 How fun is the snow how far will we go
You really ought to go see
Get up for the mission and not just the wishin'
Get into the game-it's all free
Clue #5 There once was a clue that drove you-know-who
To threaten a heinous act
We'd use it again but we're afraid of his pen
My friend, that's an unfortunate fact
Clue #6 All ye who look should honor the book
As one who stood for hope
Much was built in the name of the kilt
Look sharp now and never mope
Clue #7 If you should go look high then low
One could see it from a bower
If it's your bent you might seek a tent
To protect in case of shower
Take note of the wood and do what you should
To extract the prize for yourself
Build a bridge to your dreams as high as they seem
Leave nothing behind on the shelf
Clue #8 Look at the buck to acquire good luck
In finding the grail this year
Link a jar,a line, a star lawyer divine
While crying in your beer
He won, then lost and the nation was tossed
Into strife that was far from civil
The point I'm making is yours for the taking
Believe me - not the message board drivel
Clue #9 This name brings tears, elation and cheers
And occasionally even outrages
It sits on walls and rides the halls
And fills a dozen pages
The hills are alive and you'll have arrived
Refrain from the very injurious
Be bold and be brave but your skin you must save
What's off-limits should frankly be obvious
Clue #10 Look for the sight you hope is just right
You're doubtful and you're torn
Make the rounds for what rhymes with grounds
And part of a rose with a horn
Through flames and flow this park where you'll go
Is the site of sacred relics
Stay away from these and the cliffs if you please
Or you'll be in a heckuva fix
Clue #11 Air and river sounds lead all to Mounds
Far from the graves take your entourage
Twixt Burns and Thorn, an icy pathway is born
Across Mounds from a gray house and tan garage
Hell no fury hath as those on the wrong path
Mounds and Warner form a woodsy perimeter
The path not official contains footprints beneficial
Some 300 trudges in - quest for a quitter
This trail you must follow goes down a narrow hollow
Under a fallen tree to an old rusted drum
From here you must search for a hillside path perch
Wherein lies the center of fun

No. Not an 8. I was an 8 years ago. I think. I have trouble remembering that far back.
Just got up from a decent nap and I think the sun headache is gone.
Hope this next clue helps narrow this down.
We won't be out tonight. I would love to do that, but it's not in the cards.
Roman goddess of wisdom, MINERVA, seems to be ready for the mission in the book by Hogan. Minerva institute is on North end of white bear, just outside of Ramsey, But Winnetka Point is in Ramsey County on White Bear Lake....if you get my point...has a lovely gazebo....
Build a bridge to your dreams...
Winnetka Park has a Point with a bridge to Manitou Island...
Could this bbridge building be the 35W bridge clue we suspected...FlatIron construction is building a bridge...
I have not lived is St.Paul in years but has anyone thought the line could be as a crow flies?
I'm new you can laugh I am (take a break and rest the brain) and I hope someone on the Cooler Crew finds the Medallion I have my fingers crossed.
Thank You for the warm welcome. :sillygrin:
I hope someone on the Cooler Crew finds the Medallion I have my fingers crossed.
Me too!
Check the website at www.coolercrew.com for location and details once those are figured out. Usually the time is around noon.
And, after this hunt, I hope you all stay around on these boards. Without the hunt fever burning through our veins, it's a great time to get to know others here. There are numerous hunts put on by others here during the year that are great fun.
Drove over to Phalen/Keller. Not a soul there, for a while I wondered if someone found it, but the hotline said to keep looking. I'm guessing nobody is convinced it's there anymore.
Headed over to another park, and that seemed to fit a lot better, and with some walking around we were able to put a lot of stuff together. NO body else around in this park, but it did look like some digging had been going on recently.
Thinking that depending upon what tonights clue looks like it may solidify the thoughts or just shoot that right out of the water too.
Its telling us something doesn't agree. Centruy Avenue has like 2 or 3 names to it. Century(120), Gelvina amd I missing a name?
Samething with McNight. It switches names for a while in N St Paul.
Moppers walk around with thier heads down, but you are not a mopper if you walk with your head held high, think this thing we are looking for in some park, some place, somewhere is up high.. With all these clues I am just trying not to mope... oh yeah, jonsom had that thought, I was busy mopping around a park...
Hwy 120 is called Century in Maplewood, Geneva in Oakdale, Division in North St Paul, and E County Line Rd in White Bear Lake.
how about them drunk Irish street designers!
McKnight comes back out of the "beaver" and Lakewood turns back into McKnight just north of Ivy near the Hillcrest County Club
Yeah, I'm hoping to be able to head out to a park tonight... I don't care if it's a big park or not, if this clue narrows it down and makes the park obvious I'm going... I'll stay there for 4 days if I have to, I'm getting paid to sit on my a$$ at home and participate in this so I might as well put in the work to actually find it.. :sillygrin:
:eek:
HOM funiture - how weird (commercial just aired)
Clue 4
Some places to gain relief from the rain
Will SERVE to help you as you're looking
Read this well and you just might obtain
A clue that will really get you cooking
Two picnic shelters and a park building at Newell provide "places to gain relief from the rain." There are also grills for "cooking." But the key clue here is the word "serve," which is something a butler might do. This, of course, is a reference to Newell Park's northern boundary -- Pierce Butler Route.
Now, look at Clue #7... If it's your bent you might seek a tent to PROTECT in case of a shower...
Now, who protects us? The police! Isn't that their motto, "To protect and serve"? What park is close to a police station?
I Got a GOOD Leed on a park!!
Then again, that can be said with pretty much every park we've talked about.
It will all come together eventually. Of that I have faith.
Hope it's tonight.
a game by 3M, circa 1968
hmmm....
I got burned on that during a hunt (possibly Chair-Oh-Key) when I could see both Capitol and Cathedral domes from the old shelter at Mounds Park, and then turn around and see three 'pyramids' in the form of a row of shelter roofs. I hacked away four hours at that spot, only to be sent to another park in the morning.
