All those privately greatful or openly extatic that the first clue wasn't Jan 8 or so this year, raise your frost nibbled hand!!!

Not ALL my memories of this hunt are fond ones....Sounds like our timing weather-wise this year is promising.

Note: Location of map points are only specific to the park or intersection. Exact location is unknown.

heh, ask the Cooler Crew Cachers. We know.

I've always wondered, how DO we know the exact location for some of the earlier hunts? I mean, for many of the hunts, the final clue was pretty good, but it didn't say exactly where the medallion was.

Clue descriptions, finder descriptions, news archives, best guess.

Subject to satellites, accuracy of individual GPSr, etc etc

Anyone wonder why the Pioneer Press has been kinda moot about the Hunt when you'd think they would've advertised better? It's because they've created a new forum and web page for it....

At least I was able to register as ThoseMedallingKids on the new one. So I can post as TMK (not T_M_K like some people who want to believe) on the old and ThoseMedallingKids on the new.

I'll be interested to see if medallion fever reaches new heights this year on that board and in the parks, especially with the (supposedly) warmer weather coming, and pocketbooks (allegedly) emptier than ever. I just hope we get a nice challenge with some well-written clues, and I'll be happy.

Oh, and of course, me finding the darn thing would top it all off just fine :smile:

I remember trying to boil popcorn (back in the 70's.)

to get it to pop. Didn't work. We laughed for forever

then popped it the correct way.

I was watching NTFCF last night, do you still use the wire basket for sifting. I always thought that was a good idea.

when theres enough snow to use it.

I do have it packed and ready for this year.

that part in the movie was taken in Phalen. That was a fun day.

We always saw the cameras around and were wondering what it was all about. We never tried to investigate, actually stayed away from them. A little camera shy at the time I guess.

The only place I may have gotten in the film would be when they were filming the Camo Crue at Harriet Island - I was walking the wiener dog along the perimeter of the park behind them.

Sweet, I have to look for your cameo!

I wish they would have used some more of the footage of me and steve...

Im glad we're in it, but there was a funny bit that they got of us, downtown one night, when they ambushed us, inside the bus shelter...

I ended up playing with the boom mic, and said it looked like a shlong, and steve said that it looked like a giant black twinkie, and dared me to take a bite...

I think we actually scared the camera crew....

fyi:

im not really leaving you guys for greener pastures, and harder-core hunters -

Im trying to infiltrate the enemy.... we already have one of us deep undercover, inside their base, and I'm trying to get my way in too, so we can expose Freddy's ring of terror.....

I hear they may possibly have the hunting tools of mass destruction....
