in clue #1 (this is probably wrong) but they say "wasting" your time at the wrong scene. Maybe it's by a garbage can or in some litter or something.

Linwood or Merriam.

For as hard as these clues are don't you think they were written before Jesse was elected? They knew the 150 anniversary was this year and I think making the clues
hard was more important than involving our newly elected gov. Don't read toooooo much into it. Good Luck and Happy Hunting!!!
Cheryl Straight - 12:52am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12030 of 22139)
Allie-GO, what did she do to get arrested? Did she mess up the Park? Man, we all need to be careful out there or MOM P will cancel the Hunt!!!!!
AllieGo - 12:52am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12031 of 22139)

Yes. KS95 is gone. I think most have accepted the fact it isn't in Newell. Thus the KS95 tower or whatever isn't a factor anymore.

Frak, Fuck off. I believe this environment was created as an outlet for people to post "messages" which are relevant to the discovery of the puck. So far the only so
called Ideas are mere mumblings of incompentant school children. Go back to your AOL chat room and mix up the with members who prefer to comunicate in one
or two syllable words and have never heard the word Iconoclast before this year. Anyone else who is wondering the wereabouts of other "Cooler Heads", pick up a
fuckin phone and call! Jesus Christ, There's over 12,000 messages posted this year already and 2% are relevant to the quest.
That really pisses me off!

(Webster), and Linwood are now good possibilities. My question is whether anyone knows of a translucent peak that would fit to clue 8 at either of those places?
Thanks in advance for any help. :)

Linwood is NOT in Highland...and it can be related to the iconoclast by St. Claire

Check out the clues. The second to the last letter in clue #7 is G The 5th letter in the third line of the 4th clue is a U The 1st letter of the 1st line of the 1st clue(2nd
paragraph) is an A. And get it, Man(second word of Clue 6) starts with M, thus this all checks in with the 7 day theory. Therefore, there's no doubt it's in Guam.

whats your screen name so i can instant message you Ashlee?
Ghetto Bob - 01:37am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12229 of 22139)
Check out the clues. The second to the last letter in clue #7 is G The 5th letter in the third line of the 4th clue is a U The 1st letter of the 1st line of the 1st clue(2nd
paragraph) is an A. And get it, Man(second word of Clue 6) starts with M, thus this all checks in with the 7 day theory. Therefore, there's no doubt it's in Guam.
(you'd have more of a chance there than Cottage Grove) And, chickens have lips.

I was involved with the '98 search, though I think I've contributed more this year than last. Human 24, you and I seem to think alike. I wonder if you're thinking of
the same park that I am? I'm guessing you are.

There is like no one out looking my wife just got back and it is dead out there. Last year cherokee was packed and was lit up like a chritmas tree. hundreds of
people were out theres. this year everyone is scattered all over the place. All I have to say is tomorrows clue better narrow it down quite a bit or they will need to
fire the writter of these things.
PS is there any cooler crew members out there from the '98 search!!!

I don't want to sound like a jerk, but it was fun throwing out theories when I wasn't sure about it. Now that I am, it feels more like I'm just giving away a secret. If
you want to take a guess though, I'll tell you if you're wrong.

I know it probably sounds that way since I sound like everyone else now, but the park I was at had no golf course, a sledding hill, a library, very obvious translucent
peaks, softball fields, a nearby street named after someone famous, a street bordering it whose name is the last name of a person is first name is suggested by "trees
in a line", and its a park that its never been hidden in before. The only thing i haven't fit in to my satisfaction is the 9,5,4, but everything else is unmistakable.

Its not Linwood. Here's why I discounted it to begin with. Trees are wood, but why would they use a different word for wood, but not for lin(e). Wood does play
into it. And to answer another question it is a fairly small park which explains why they're making it so hard to pinpoint. Once you get the right park, there's not a
whole lot of ground to cover.

answers to several moronic questions brought up in the past hour or so: was there a ski jump at battle creek? not from around here, are you?
does anybody know if they hide it before the first clue? you probably thing y2k means the end of the world.
any talk about 1)Hill-Murray; 2) sex and profanity; 3) getting a date; you folks need to go to an x-rated web site and leave the treasure hunting to us adults.

Hey kids, Stalion checking in here.
Boy, sounds like there's a bunch of frustrated brats out there who are pissed off that they don't understand the clues, so instead of using their brains they just sit in
this chat room and yell at each other. . . Great.
All I want to know is, For those of you saying you know where it is but won't tell, fine. It's the dumbest thing you could say here cause if you thought you were right
you'd be out there right now trying to dig up your 10 Grand. But if you think you know where it is, then maybe you could help out with a couple of the clues, esp.#'s

To answer one question, how come I'm not out looking for it right now? I'd like to be, and was for a while, but have bad asthma and am lucky if I can stay in the
cold for more than hour. I do plan on going out again tomorrow if its not too late. To answer another question, it has not been in this park before according to the list
of hiding places on the CoolerCrew sight. As for the question of where is it. Just coming out and saying it is no fun.

If you drive to the end of White Bear Avenue, the jump was directly ahead at the end of the road. It
sloped to the left, onto a VERY steep hill. This hill ends up in a deep valley, through which Battle Creek flows.
To the right is Highway 61, the left goes to Upper Afton Road.

N DREW - On Iconoclast, I think you're definition is a bit slim. It's NOT just a non believer, it's more general than that. More like someone who goes against
traditional ideas, destroys images ... look in a dictionary or thesaurus
Ittiz Eye - 02:12am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12387 of 22141)

no church iconoclast is someone who going agian all reason goes against the grain that's why when they say A park is the spot but a golf course is not means thing of
it in a different way because in clue 4 studing the past is there for us to go back to the previous clues and if you're will to be an iconoclast sooo it is telling you it will
be in a park with a golf course

believe they put "a golf course is not" is so you dont rip up a golf course looking for it. there may be a golf course or not, but one year they hid it on a
golf course and people tore it up, so they will never put it on a golf course again.

This last clue really threw me off, because of the translusent peak. I guess I just have to drive around and open my eyes to look for one, because I don't hear anyone

Part 2 Yeah, I know, but the only clue that doesn't fit is Clue 2: Flying downhill can be quite a thrill And a popular outdoor attraction But your chances of winning are
nil If you get too close to the action
Or have you found out how to link this clue to Phalen?

I went to Marriam first because I was SURE it was there. But when I got there at about midnight there was ONE guy there. I thought I missed the boat so we didn't
even get out of the car and moved on to HP (nothing) then to Phalen (nothing) and on and on and on....

dont agree however....i belive that when you read the clue:Somewhere in here there's a clue quite clear, If you think first of trees in a line, From this a name
will appear, That could lead you to a valuable sign.... the trees in a line would be a hedge...and the name that appears starts with edge.....you take it from there

o.k. in the 4th clue it says {If you're willing to be an iconoclast the treasure might belong to you}also Studing the past can be quite a blast, my thinking is go back to
the previous clues see what they say so if you go back to clue 1 when it says {A park is the spot but a golf course in not} MAYBE this is where the iconoclast
comes in. the thinking like an iconoclast like to clue says. iconoclast is someone who goes agaist the common reason, thought, idea, against the grain. that's why I
beleive its at a park with a golf course

BP- You're getting at Edgecumbe Ave in HP? Was there today, didn't look good except that the frisbee golf course has holes #9 5 and 4 in that area,
Also, that was exactly where it was hiden last time they put it in highland, and they had a clue which punned on edgecumbe, . . . sorry, I don't think they'd just repeat
like that.

violator,
I have been all over merriam and I think you are just messing with peoples heads. There is NO such peak. If there is name it. Don't beat around the bushes. I was
with you on ALL the clues. I would have bet a paycheck on it today, until the clue came out. That killed merriam for me.

Dreams are the roadmap to life; without them we are lost
Actually, it looks like we have mostly serious people back on here now so here goes: Clue #1 apparently really does mean there is no golf course (not what I was
guessing). Clue #2 does refer to sledding, but it is on the other end of the park. Clue #3 is still a bit hazy. There are several interpretations regarding 4,5, & 9, but
none I feel confident enough to repeat. Clue #4, it is indeed hidden in a park where it has never been. Clue #5 refers to the library that is actually in the park. Clue #6
Either refers to a)Woodrow Wilson with Wilson Ave to the south, b) Babe Ruth with Ruth St. to the West, or c) Henry Hudson with Old Hudson Ave one block to
the south. Clue #7, trees in a line = WOOD ROW = Woodrow as in Woodrow Wilson. There is only one Wilson Ave. and only one park on Wilson Ave. Clue #8
is saying its hidden on the softball fields on the West end of the park (away from the sledding). The translucent peaks are glass pyramids lighted from within atop
SunRay shopping center as seen from the back. There is more than one, but one definitely stands out above the rest. So what is this park? Conway if you haven't
figured it out already. But now that you know, doesn't that take away from the fun?

Part 2 of Medallion Madams - 02:33am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12458 of 22141)
there is a small hill at Phalen not big but then again whoever writes these cluse sometimes don't always see things like us hunters do. there idea of flying downhill
could be quite different from yours or mine. I think that a sliding hill is a sliding hill and to some kids just going down it can be thrilling

DD - It doesn't sound like a window to me at all. That wouldn't even be helpful if it DID make sense, no offense.
Human - Yes the dome is transparent, but if it is nighttime and the lights are on inside couldn't you say it is translucent? It would sure look like it. In fact, that's just
how one might describe it.

Dreams are the roadmap to life; without them we are lost
As I said before, I would love to be out searching for it, and have been as much as I can, but I just can't stay outdoors too long with my asthma. So if I can't have
the money, perhaps I could at least have the glory. But if this helps the winner and they want to pay my rent this month I would be very thankful.
Bill King - 02:42am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12473 of 22141)
Stalion--you wanted help with #4: The iconoclast must be a person oe peoples who defamed something of religion. There were once a maurading group(army) who
did this, they were called the Highlanders. They ravaged the countryside destroying churches and religious items in a feud with the Church of England. To be willing
to be an iconoclast as the clue reads, means you must be a "Highlander"....henceforth if you dig in HP, "the treasure might belong to you"--clue 4 just tells you the
Park.... but makes you think!! You can use any media device to back it up. It will work out as the clue reads

B KING - Sorry, I'm not with you on that one, its WAY to much of a strech. Iconoclast is a very uniuqe word, with several different refferences. The Highlanders
were far from the only Iconoclasts, by the same logic I think we could support ANY park. Sorry, I'm just not with you on that one.

the clue does'nt say anything about alot of people sliding just flying downhill can be a thrill. and if you think back to all the past years they have
pulled out some very strange explanations for their clues, just a thought, look back at some of your old clues from past years.

Jack In The Box - 02:48am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12482 of 22141)
Allright, I have been at Merriam since Tuesday, and if I find out that this thing is at Conway, which is fitting better than merriam with tonight's clue, I sure hope the PP
gives this money to charity and calls off the hunt because there IS a difference between a St. Paul Park, and A St. Paul Recreation center. And conway's a rec
center not a park.

The last time I was there, about 12:30 there were at least 10 groups of people digging up the fields. I figured there would be more with the daylight and the whole
thing will probably be over by tomorrow. I don't really know too many people who would be up for searching for it on SuperBowl Sunday, and certainly not enough
people where I feel I'd have a substantial chance of finding it. As far as how do I live during the winter? I just don't spend a lot of time outside.
Egghead the Treasure Huntin' Fool - 02:50am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12484 of 22141)
So, Conway huh?
There were several people out at this time of night in Highland last night. But my nephew reports nobody out there this afternoon.
Seems strange that the place wouldn't be crawling with people on a Saturday if it is indeed the consensus choice.
Bill King - 02:50am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12485 of 22141)
An iconoclast is a person or peoples who defamr religious property!! period--thats the definition. Read it anywhere dictionary, thesaurus, encyclopedia. It all comes
back to religeous rebellion. You nust remember that the cluemakers are educated... If you know your history, youll know that all the Streets names in st. paul are
named after people who helped this city grow... those are not iconoclasts.
Park Digger - 02:51am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12486 of 22141)

I don't think there is a clue about the name Conway specifically, unless you think the famous man is Tim Conway, but I doubt it. I think they'll refer to the actual
name of the park in Clue #9 or #10.

When I first logged on, no one had any idea where it was, or at least they weren't saying. I don't think there was a consensus choice. Even now that I've given a
lengthy explanation I'm sure you'll find the conversation drifting off towards other parks. I don't think there's ever a consensus until you get something as obvious as
Chair-o-key was last year in clue #9 or whatever it was.
Part 2 of Medallion Madams - 02:54am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12492 of 22141)
it not talking about you finding things or people who are iconoclast but for YOU to think like one. the says "IF YOU"RE WILLING TO BE AN ICONOCLAST".

What I said was that the park it is hidden in was one that it had never been hidden in before. Its not in BC, its in Conway, which, by the way, looks like a park even
if it is a rec center.
Bill King - 02:56am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12495 of 22141)

Sorry, couldnt help it here. Alison is NOT reffering to BC. Look back at what she said and then look at a map, you'll cry. ANd KING- yesyesyesyesyes,
WEBSTERS SAYS "Someone who attacks religious beliefs; destroyer of images." I had to memorize this for the GRE a few months ago and I'm looking at the
dictionary right now.
By your logic, since MLK jr was an iconoclast the medaloin MUST be hidden in MLK jr. rec center- which IS concidered a park.
There you have it.

I have to admit Westside Will, I was a bit suprised when I pulled into Conway the first time tonight around eleven and the only person there was The Medallion Kid.
But then again, maybe everyone had just gone home to wait for the new clue. I think the clues have been vague enough that you could fit them to almost any park if
you try and thus there's no consensus. And some people, if they're not sure of the park, won't go out to dig. I think Cherokee was identified a little earlier last year
and Como was definitely identified early. I believe that brought out people who figured they would take their chance at least knowing they were in the right park.
People who are still waiting this year.

"For if you hide the medallion, even in your hearts, there will he rake for it . . ."
Here's another example: Judiasm is an established belief, to eat pork is to go against judiasm, to go against Judiasm is to be an iconoclast, therefore the medallion is
at PIGS EYE PARK!!!!!
The Jews were/are sooooooo popular,
You see how that logic just doesn't work? I'm sorry King, I'm just sorry, I disagree with you, no offense. But you're wrong on that interpretation.

The clues alone should tell you where Conway is, but its on the east side, just north of 94 by 3M. Technically its between Conway and Wilson, and Ruth and
Howard.

Bill King - 03:17am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12532 of 22141)
So... what are YOU (being an iconoclast) going to RELIGIOUSLY do for it to be in that park?
Rushmore - 03:17am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12533 of 22141)
Allison- You gave your description of where it is earlier and that pinpointed it. I'll give you credit, clue #7 gives this park a lot of validity. Thanks.

"For if you hide the medallion, even in your hearts, there will he rake for it . . ."
KING, I answered it already, and so did Alison about 80 posts ago, The clue reads "if you're willing to be an iconoclast" the interp. of this is, "Go against tradition
and be willling to believe it's in a new park"
Just read the damn clue!

The quarry is the medallion and it is covered by something white like the outside of a baseball or softball.
Bill King - 03:19am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12538 of 22141)
if so, then you have to do something religious orrientated for it to be in that park... what is that... PRAY????

All I can say for bp's Battle Creek theory is that I don't think its there because its at Conway. If bp can make as convincing an argument I'd listen to it. Otherwise it
looks like the system is getting sleepy and so am I. I guess I caused enough havoc for one night. I guess I know where I'll be seeing you all tomorrow. I'm the one

"For if you hide the medallion, even in your hearts, there will he rake for it . . ."
DAMN IT KING!!! You don't have to be religious to be an iconoclast. Jesse Ventura is an iconoclast- DON'T try to argue against THAT one- it just happened
that the highlanders were. Iconoclast and Highlander are NOT synonomous, nor interchangable words.
Oh you didn't know? - 03:21am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12548 of 22141)
Where did religion come from? If you look in a Thesaurus you will find words such as rebel, nonconformist, dissenter, and renegade.

Eric, I was on the cooler last year.
For those of you who think the medallion is in a park west of Lexington, what is the "translucent peak". Remember, the park needs to fit the clues, not vice-versa.

You need a history class.. the most famous iconoclasts were the HIGHLANDERS they were a people, a klan, an army. Not a synonym

We were down on the capitol mall....I still think it all fits...in fact, more than ever!
Cheryl, got the e-mail...I'll do that tomorrow. Sorry we missed each other down there.
Also, because we weren't tired we drove out past Phalen looking for Mom and Dad....the gates are all closed...and no peaks that I could see. Also went past BC -
probably 3 cars out there and no peaks visible.

Can you say "translucent peak"? It just doesn't work for Highland.

By the way, for Clue#8, the quarry is what you are seeking. It is covered by what is described in line 1. The only question is does the quarry specifically refer to the
medallion, which is to say it is hidden in a softball (which would be awfully strange) or is it something more esoteric like the meaning of this clue, in which case it
probably just means you should think about softballs and a softball field.

ok ill blow my wad. but keep in mind like i said i have no clue as to where i was. it was a park with a road not edgecumbe but edge?????? it was at a park with a
sledding hill, (9)baseball, (5)hockey, (4)driving ranges, near a school,and the man well his name i cant remember either but the street was named for a writer. when I
was there I had a paper and the first 7 clues fit!! I will look again for it tomorrow to find the lighted glowing thing>!?>!?>!?
Sippn on Gin and Jews - 03:27am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12563 of 22141)
the translucent peak could be two things the way I see it.....#1 when driving down Rice St. towards downtown there is a skyscraper which at the top is triangular,
and is also lit up.....#2 the golden arches of mickey d's right across the street from the enclosed baseball arena
Cheryl Straight - 03:27am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12564 of 22141)

The translucent building top, as I was corrected this evening, is the top of the St. Paul (companies) and not Galtier as I stated earlier. Note: The big red #1 sign
wasn't on tonight (at least not after 1:30)

"For if you hide the medallion, even in your hearts, there will he rake for it . . ."
King, I'm not going to argue with you anymore. You need to try to think logical. Where the hell you think you get Highlanders as the most famous iconoclasts, I don't
know. Just about any famous, controversial figure has been an iconoclast. The Highlanders are hardly the most famous group or clan in history. You want the MOST
famous iconoclast? It's Jesus. He ripped the world apart, and pissed off a lot of Jews. How the Highlanders are more famous than him, . . . I don't know HOW you
could say such a thing.
You may think Scottland is a cool place, that doesn't make the medalion hidden in Highland park. Go watch Rob Roy or something
Rushmore - 03:31am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12576 of 22141)
Even before the clues came out I thought that would be the obvious place to put it. But, as the clues have come out and I heard about the damage done to that area
years ago, I doubt they would put it there. Also, how do you make the clues fit that area.

We're going down there tomorrow in the light of day. We wondered about that translucency, too. Thought it might be easier to tell what was translucent and what
was lit to appear so.
Cheryl Straight - 03:31am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12578 of 22141)
The #1 sign was suggested as a possible "translucent peak" earlier, that's why I brought it up.

Cheryl Straight - 03:34am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12582 of 22141)
Terry,
For my money (hopefully the $10G's), the only translucent peak I have heard of this evening is the St. Paul peak. During the day, it won't be glowing (translucing
<G>).

Terry, I did hear about your "lost" earmuffs. I was kind of thinking they just might be worth finding this year. Cass's place was interesting - it had some things that
easily fit the clues. Couldn't locate the 9 and the 4 may have been a stretch. But the 5 were as bright as the sun <g>
b - 03:38am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12588 of 22141)
9 and 5 go together somewhere a 4. any ideas
Bill King - 03:39am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12589 of 22141)
just cuz the clue comes out at night doesnt mean that it only is translucent at night--must be translucent at ALL times
Cheryl Straight - 03:40am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12590 of 22141)
Okay, I'll bite, how does the park you are thinking it's at fit the tranlucency clue?
Bill King - 03:42am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12591 of 22141)
Could be different things, simple as a clockface... or as intricate as using translucent as warmth...

Eagle Eye - 08:15am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12624 of 22141)
Goat: I was at Newell for several hours yesterday. I asked several people where the "Devil's Den" is, but no one was exactly sure. We all seemed to think it is in the
Northeast corner of the park, on an incline with trees and a little brush. There is some kind of maintenance building (shed) in that area. Supposedly, there is a sign
that says "Devil's Den" but I didn't see it, and neither did anyone who combed that area "religiously". Hope that helps.
P.S. I *still* haven't ruled out Newell!!!

Pablo - 08:21am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12626 of 22141)
Hey Eagle Eye... Brian C. - Highland is still a strong possibility. A 9 and a 5 and somewhere a 4. Frisbee golf
has a holes 9, 5, and 4. Alison (I like her style too) was thinking Conway, (459), but I still maintain that 9
and 5 come in that order. 4 could be in front or back. Probably the hours, KS95 (95.4 on your FM dial) or the
address 495..... Any ideas... Terry V, do you sleep, man?<

Dagnabbit - 08:21am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12628 of 22141)
"Wood"-"Row" = "Tree"-"Line", I know where the "translucent peak" is.
Eagle Eye - 08:22am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12629 of 22141)
Brian: I'm still confused! From all the discussion overnight, I'm not sure the last clue eliminated much. People seem to still be all over the map. There's a little more
concensus for something near downtown, the Capitol mall, a flurry of interest for Conway and other points near 3M, some talk about Triangle Park, but darned if I
know where *that* is. I heard that it is a "new" park near Linwood. A mention or two of Harriet Island, because its at the end of Plato, Nagasaki street is there and
you can see a glowing translucent peak across the river. That's as much as I know, which aint much!!!
Dagnabbit - 08:23am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12630 of 22141)
The peak is not in the park. It is easily visible "from a distance". If you were out at 5am driving around it would have smacked you in the face.
Eagle Eye - 08:24am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12631 of 22141)
Hi Pablo! I was hoping to run into you and Hollywood yesterday, but you were gone by the time I got to Highland. Where are you headed today?
I feel like I'm still at the beginning of the hunt, and have to cruise the parks and areas to scope them out. Wish I was convinced enough about a particular location to
be able to start digging in earnest!

Eagle Eye - 08:29am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12639 of 22141)
I don't think there's any connection between the Devil's Den and any of the clues. Was only referring to being able to identify *where* exactly it is within Newell
Park, as a matter of curiosity. Certainly not something the City Fathers and Mothers established, but must be a spot that is frequented by some. Perhaps its only a
legend.
Brian Carlson - 08:30am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12640 of 22141)
where was that at Dagnabbit?
sharon w - 08:31am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12641 of 22141)
it's only a legend, and way too much of a stretch for the iconoclast clue - in my humble opinion anyway
Pablo - 08:31am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12642 of 22141)
Eagle Eye, we were digging in Highland, and a family looked so determined. They had a 5 year old with a shovel
digging in earnest. We chatted with them, and talked about it being near Hedgecumbe and Montreeal. Looked in a
tree hollow by the frisbee golfers. We stuck our hand in there, and a wild animal nipped at my hand... Yeoooh.
One of the golfers thought we were park employees, and said thanks for digging us out. I said, "No charge".
Hollywood is still sleeping. How can we reach you? <

Trees in a line = "Woodroe" Wilson Yearning for learning = a library Flying down a hill = sledding Translucent peak = frosted glass pyramid on a structure value in
new = NEW, never used location 9, 5, and somewhere 4 = Baseball, Hockey and a reference to golf (as in no golfing sign) round, white, stretched quite tight =
softball or baseball
It's not in: Newell, Marriam, Highland, Como, BC, or Phalen
The translucent peak is near not far (1 block). Just got back from this location and it's there. Having coffee and then heading back out.
Any curious???????

messages to find out. Not so sure the numbers are used all together though because the clue says "and somewhere a four"

OK I'll tell ya then I gotta go or my wife will kill me.
The translucent peak is on top of Sun Ray Shopping Center. The line of trees points to "Wood-ROW" Wilson, which borders the place. Sun Ray Branch of the St
Paul public library is within Border, there is a sliding hill on the east side, there is a Hockey Rink (4) countem (4) Baseball diamonds. I'll be at Conway after
breakfast wearing a Lutsen hat. Was there at 5am, signs are unmistakable. Gotta be an Iconoclast to win this one, guys.

There are at least two locations that people say are "hitting them right in the face". One is Conway Park, the other is the Capitol Mall, in reference to the glowing
translucent peak atop one of the office buildings. I haven't been to either place yet, but I think the clue writer *still* is teasing us. *One* of those places will
eventually yield the medallion, but people are still scattered all over the map. This clue writer must had a *ton* of fun last summer and fall, driving all over the city
finding things that all the parks have in common!

ANGEL --
Conway was a park (now a "Rec Area", but I think the distinction is too fine).
There is a sliding hill at the east end of the "park."
It is off 94, near Highway 5; near the 400-500 block north of Ruth St.
Clue #6 is Babe Ruth.
Clue #7 is Woodrow Wilson.
Clue #8 is the atriums (atria?) at Sun Ray shopping center. (Line them up to get only one "peak.")
And it is a new park - never used before for Winter Carnival fun.
What do you think?
snostar - 09:00am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12687 of 22141)
could be--They could have broken it open and jammed the thing inside--now that would be horror to find.

Hmmmmmmmm... longfellow is good too
Eagle Eye - 09:02am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12693 of 22141)
Question: Is any kind of audible signal given when the medallion is turned in? Fireworks, sirens, or something? I can remember hearing that this was the case. Heard
something sounding like fireworks (lasted about five seconds) a couple of hours ago, so I watched the clue page for awhile but nothing changed. Can anybody help
me with an answer to this?
Pablo - 09:03am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12694 of 22141)
Conway is a playground, not a Park. It was a Park back in the 1950's. Eags # is gone.
snostar - 09:04am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12695 of 22141)
Ponder this... trees in a line>the timbers of a railroad track sign>a railroad crossing. Anybody?
snostar - 09:04am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12696 of 22141)
conway is still public ground
Vasco - 09:05am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12697 of 22141)
Mushie -
The first apparent sign for the Conway Rec Area is at the corner of Ruth and Wilson. The sign may identify the park. (and it happens to be at the end of a line of
trees in front of an apartment complex -- if the clue is literal and figurative.)
There is also a scoreboard sponsored by Eastern Heights Bank -- that could make a "valuable" sign. . .

No, perhaps the park was 3M's, but it is a St. Paul "park" now.
Unfortunately, when I was there this morning, I realized just how much untrampled ground is left to be searched. The nexus of the three ball fields has been well
combed, but there is a lot of park left. . .
SnoHuntress - 09:09am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12706 of 22141)

I believe that the numbers adorn the front door means the numbers lead you to the front of the park...as can be seen from the front of the park when you look out....
not actually on the door...but am wondering if there is dual meaning in them...

Cheryl Straight - 09:16am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12718 of 22141)
Hi Ian, Eags, and all you other "early" risers...
Ian, have you been out digging yet or are you still contemplating the park like most of us?
MushieW - 09:17am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12719 of 22141)
Yes Fifth Horseman...but not since 1969
Vasco - 09:17am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12720 of 22141)
Perhaps I'm too loose with the first clue, but I think the distinction was between a park and a golf course, aimed at excluding golf courses, not requiring a "park"
name. Conway is a park even if it is not a "park."
And speaking of the numbers. . . go to Conway and notice the HUGE numbers of the apartment buildings just south of the ball fields.
It is there. . .

Thanks MushieW. I'm going to have to consider myself an "iconoclast" because I believe that it is not in a park this year...

What peak would be glowing not far from the Conway Rec Center/Park? I lived over there for three years and can't figure that one out!
Bubba Smith - 09:24am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12726 of 22141)
quarry=(thesaurus) pit, hole, where or what is covered pit we seek?
Vasco - 09:24am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12727 of 22141)
Larry -
When did you live near Conway? Remember SunRay was remodeled not long ago, including the addition of the covered pyramidal atrium near where Minnesota
Fabrics and Bridgemans used to be.
MushieW - 09:25am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12728 of 22141)
Fifth... I see your point but clue says park and they are not going to lie or try to fool you there... I believe the iconoclast clue means it will be at a park it has never
been hidden in before...out with the old and in with the new
Ian - 09:26am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12729 of 22141)
"gettin' ready"
Hi Cheryl
We've been digging, but not really into it. Mainly just to be out there. Can't quite put everything together.
MushieW - 09:27am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12730 of 22141)
Bubba...quarry is also something sought after....:) Remember folks they said PEAK...not dome...not just anything glowing....PEAK...like church steeple.... :)
Jenny Johnson - 09:27am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12731 of 22141)
VASCO:
Since Conway was a park in the past... do you think that "studying the past" would give them permission to use it now?
Bubba Smith - 09:28am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12732 of 22141)
Like that idea Mushie
MushieW - 09:28am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12733 of 22141)
Gotta go...good luck all! :)
Vasco - 09:28am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12734 of 22141)
Clue #4 used "blast" and Clue #8 uses "quarry." Does anybody know what used to be at Conway? Could it be a gravel pit/granite/etc. reference?
The Fifth Horseman - 09:28am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12735 of 22141)
MushieW- I can see your point, however the first "half" of the first clue says "public ground". I think that the second half of the clue is telling us to stay away from
Como and Highland...
The Walrus - 09:29am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12736 of 22141)
If it's at Conway, 9-5-4 could've been a reference to I-94 and Hwy. 5. It's in between them.
Bubba Smith - 09:29am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12737 of 22141)
What could be round and white and stretched?

Come on Bubba, can't you figure that one out? You were smart enough to play in the NFL for all of those years...
MushieW - 09:33am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12740 of 22141)
Horseman...I agree too...but public ground is a no brainer...they don't want you to destroy private property around the park, etc...they try to protect the area...get
it...? :))
Vasco - 09:34am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12741 of 22141)
Bubba -
By the time they get to the 8th clue, there is always some reference to what the medallion is hidden in. I think the "white and stretched quite tight" language means it is
in a sock (too much like last year?) or a plastic bag (like a white Target bag?) or something.
Bubba Smith - 09:35am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12742 of 22141)
The more I try to figure these clues out the more confused I become.
MushieW - 09:36am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12743 of 22141)
I think it is in a baseball...lots of game and home references in clues... etc... quarry is just simply something sought after...the treasure medallion....keep it simple.... :))
Bubba Smith - 09:36am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12744 of 22141)
Thanks Vasco, yeah Horseman too many punches to the head but it was boxing instead.
The Fifth Horseman - 09:38am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12745 of 22141)
I agree with your thinking MushieW... But I think that it is inside of a softball... A baseball is just too small for that medallion...

Per Austreng - 09:40am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12748 of 22141)
I'm thinking that round and white and stretched tight is a reference to one of those pantyhose eggs - nice thing to hide it in....what do you think?
AllieGo - 09:40am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12749 of 22141)
Round and white and stretched...a baseball, softball, a white balloon.
Greg Lehman - 09:41am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12750 of 22141)

how could it be hidden in a baseball or softball? If you were to take the cover off of the ball, there is no way youre gonna get the meddalion inside unless you
reattach the skin to something else thats round. That would be incredibly lame.

Peter Nwaofune - 09:51am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12766 of 22141)
Has anyone thought about the battle creek park? Conway does not really have the "flying downhill" and the "popular outdoor attraction" that clue no. 2 referred to.
And battle Creek does have areas of sledding, there is also the school to go with clue #5. And Winthrop, "the reference to a man of fame, He was the Governor of
Massachussett in 1640 there about. Does that get anyone thinking?

Treasure Digger - 09:53am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12771 of 22141)
Good morning, everyone!! Just read the previous messages before logging on. So everyone seems to want to throw Conway Rec. Ctr. into the list of where the
medallion might be located. Went to Highland, Newell, Merriam, Battle Creek, and Linwood yesterday. What a day. Found no reason for Merriam, Battle Creek,
or Linwood. My only thinking is Highland is separated into sections (i.e. tome). By the two water towers there's a building with a peak on the top (can't say what the
bldg. is for) but water is clear and then peak. Not sure of anything translucent. I guess I'll have to venture out to Conway today.
MushieW - 09:53am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12772 of 22141)
Bubba....not Rice...they dont want people digging in there with the ice sculptures and all.... :) Medallionhound...what turns you away from my park??
AllieGo - 09:55am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12773 of 22141)
This spot has to fit all the clues. There IS sliding, it seems to me, or something like it that isn't far away. If it doesn't fit, don't make it fit or it's a waste of time.
WE4 - 09:55am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12774 of 22141)
We think that it's hidden white balloon (not blown up)! Plus we also think that they don't want us to find it this year!!! Good promo with the $10,000 but they'll not
have to pay up!!! I hope they give the $10,000 to charity if the medallion isn't found!!!

Conway is a Rec Center NOT a park. IT'S NOT THERE! IN all the medallions history it has not ever been in a Rec Center. Always a park, or street corner on a
bench long long time ago for that one but anyway the real parks name is PHALEN PARK. All of us people that have been doing this for along time seem to be
gathering at PHALEN.
AllieGo - 09:57am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12777 of 22141)
Highland DOES have an old water tower with a peak that's illuminated by a light. You can only see it from the ballpark, not while parked. There is a new water
tower next to it with a little red light on top.

Good Morning All. Bubba, Last night we had company, I would not let them look at any previous statements about where people might think the medallian is. After
they read the clues they determined Rice park. P.S. One person who was here said here brother found in the 1980's at cherokee park. I have now met someone
who knows someone who found it

Mcinn----almost every park has kids sliding. It was at como just 2 years ago. So many of the clues could be for any park. You have to be able to change your mind
and try different places. If you stay at one park the whole time of course the clues are going to fit. All of us know that the clues can fit in any park if you try really
hard.

As much as I don't want to think it's possible, I have to agree w/Bubba. A LOT of clues make sense for Rice and about 20-30 other people thought so as well @
about 2AM this morning!!!! Even more visible as a translucent peak is the glass pyramid shaped roof of the St Paul Co's bldg.

Per Austreng - 10:13am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12821 of 22141)
How could it be Phalen? Phalen is not in St. Paul.
Sister Sister - 10:13am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12822 of 22141)
Whoever writes these clues is a real mastermind. Years past, the clues were so elementary. You can see a trend with last years and this years clues - much more
difficult.
However, last year at this time 90% of us were already at cherokee. Now, it seems like there is no common opinion as to where the thing is. Baffling.

I agree with you Donutman. I'm sitting here thinking that almost every park that's in this discussion fits. All of us can make the clues fit for the park of our choice. It's
driving us all crazy. The daytime driving around works for looking at all the parks, but you have to go back at night to also try to fit in the clues. I have to agree with
everyone on their thoughts. This year's clues are very vague and at the same time very specific. Ahhhhhh!!!

Hey clarks - Phalen fits with the old and new concept because Phalen has never been used before. Also, the iconoclast reference breaks with tradition by placing it
in a park never before used.
Not that I'm convinced that its Phalen.

original 12 he wrote when he hid it to get us to the right park?

Previous posts have stated that there are a lot of people at Phalen. Something about a house actually having the address of 954. Many are convinced it is there. I
personally haven't made it to Phalen but will add it to my list for today. Feel sorry for those hunters who are watching the Superbowl game today.

Part 2 of Medallion Madams - 10:22am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12850 of 22141)
sister sister this may take awhile but please lend a eyeball here. CLUE1 tells us it's in St.Paul and that there is a golf course. Clue2 Sliding down hill o.k. fine there is
a hill there, not big but still a hill, and also don't get to close to this action. Clue3 Numbers keep score and adorn a front door, there is a house on Ivy St that has the
#954 in the order also there is a old folks home there address has a 95 in it. also a #4 on the 4 way stop sign, on forrest. Clue 4 Studing the past, and If you're
willing to be an iconoclast, o.k. i think that is telling us to look at the past clues, study the past, that's where i think the golf course comes in because if i think like an
iconoclast it tells me to go agaisnt the grain , think different so golf course is the spot, don't dig it up but be in a park with one. Clue 5 goal, maybe hockey rink is the
ticket there, or Farnsworth school is 1 block away worth was also a word used in that clue Clue 6 Aman of fame that one is Nathaneil Hawthorne,street goes into
Phalen also the home you could look at it a gottage there is a street call cottage the runs into the parkARE YOU STILL THERE? I KNOW THIS IS TAKING
LONG
Jack Novak - 10:23am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12851 of 22141)
I think Phalen is in Maplewood. Remember the last time it was hid in Maplewood? About 1980 or so. Maplewood threatened to take the Pioneer Press to court if
they ever put it in Maplewood again, because of all the damage done to their parks. I think it's hid out here in Las Vegas, Nevada. It's probably in the valcano in
front of the Mirage hotel, on the strip. Should I start looking?
Treasure Digger - 10:23am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12852 of 22141)
Soup, think Ramsey County might give you a better chance at finding the medallion. Afterall, the rules state is hidden in Ramsey County. Just a thought!!
Part 2 of Medallion Madams - 10:26am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12853 of 22141)
you're right Phalen is in ST. Paul there is the northern part in Maplewood but that not where i"am talking about. over on the south western part of the park is where
my group is. AND what does St. Francis have to do with anything?????
Treasure Digger - 10:26am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12854 of 22141)
Phalen is in St. Paul -- the south side of it. About 3/4 of the park is St. Paul. Check your map. I believe Larpenter divides the two cities and the park.
Treasure Digger - 10:27am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12855 of 22141)
The clues are spelling out St. Francis is the theory of that.

Jack, I'm with you, Vegas is where the treasure is at. 80 degrees, warmth, no snow, and plenty of casinos. I bet I could find a treasure chest out there.
Treasure Digger - 10:28am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12859 of 22141)

dave matthews - 10:30am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12861 of 22141)
I think the first two lines are telling us how the medallion is hidden Round and white and stretched quite tight Is the covered quarry you seek I read the covered
quarry as refering to the actual medallion and that it is in something round and white.
Part 2 of Medallion Madams - 10:31am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12862 of 22141)
The last time it was in PHALEN was in 83 i was there. your right about Maplewood not wanting it in their city but the park is so big and there is a big part of it in St
Paul. LOOK inthe southwest part of the Park that is ST. PAUL

Paco Jr. - 10:34am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12865 of 22141)
I think today's clue leads to either the State Cpitool Grounds or to Como. The quarry covering could be the capitol or Como Conservatory? Any thoughts on either
of these places?
WE4 - 10:34am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12866 of 22141)
Yes - the Water Cooler was here last year - about 7500 total entries ffor the entire hunt, 1997 was the first Water Cooler year - about 450 total entries!!!

Helmut - 10:36am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12868 of 22141)
Is Triangle Park also known as Dawson Park? It shows up on my map at Lexington and Otto, but I drove past there, and there's nothing I can find. wo thoughts: Is
it a new park? It looks rather undeveloped. (...reference to 'new')Or, is it simply a poorly labled public park, which may be an enticing place to hide a treasure.
On my map, it shows up at the bottom of the bluff, just west of Lex, south of otto. At the top of the bluff, it looks like it starts where Highland Pkwy peters out.
There's some sort of community house at the top of the bluff, with a religious-sounding name (Jewish?), located where it looks like the park should start ('iconoclast'
- maybe it's located near this?)
dave matthews - 10:36am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12869 of 22141)
Socrates95 - Not a bad guess - I was thinking along the lines of softball - didn't think baseball would be big enough - but neither of those really 'stretch'

Don't you think it's odd that the Pioneer Press hasn't run ONE story on the Treasure Hunt. Usually they have a story about it every day!! For having it worth $10K
and little publicity - except for KARE 11 saying it's in Como - I think it's strange. They didn't even want the past winners riding in the parade this year!!! Probably
they didn't want to hear the complaints - or else couldn't afford new sweatshirts!!!
Nybor - 10:38am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12872 of 22141)

Ya know, if the writer of these clues is looking at all the posted messages, he/she is probably laughing his/her butt off because of all the different connections
everyone is making. I can only imagine how far off we are from what the clues really mean!! So I figure there is one of two things we're doing wrong. We're either
breaking these clues down WAY too much and getting stuff out of it that really isn't true(if so we are going to kick ourselves when this is over with), or we aren't
breaking it down enough(if that's the case then whomever is writing these clues is going to have to tone it down within the next few days or it won't be found anytime
soon.)
Part 2 of Medallion Madams - 10:38am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12873 of 22141)

golf, though.

Has the medallion ever been in the same park two years in a row?
davidm - 10:39am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12876 of 22141)
Nobody hopes more than this former east side guy that it's at Phalen, but let me clear up 2 glaring misconceptions once and for all:
1. The treasure has been hidden at Phalen 3 times in the past. (1958, 1973, and 1983) Check your history page if you don't believe me.
2. Most of Phalen is within the St. Paul boundaries. However, the "best" hiding spots are on the west side of the lake, north of Larpentuer, which would put it into
Maplewood. (who, true, have no sense of fun or adventure when it comes ot this hunt.) I prediced Phalen in 1999 on this very board last year. We'll see if I;m right,
but right now, I don;t think so.
dave matthews - 10:39am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12877 of 22141)
mckinnis - they are referring to Como Park as Winter Park during the carnival - why - what is the connection
denephew - 10:40am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12878 of 22141)

Well I think at this rate, the less we know the better. Right now we are starting to make connections where there aren't any just because one thing fits. Even though it
seems like these clues are telling us something, it really isn't telling us much of anything! DAMN THIS IS ANNOYING!!!

away!!
Larry Ryan - 10:51am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12891 of 22141)
Attention Dave Matthews: Even though the north and west ends of Phalen are in Maplewood, it is still in Ramsey County, which makes it fair ground to look in.
What is the Translucent Peak?
The Rock - 10:51am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12892 of 22141)

Hey everbody, The Peoples Champion is back.!!!!!!!!!!!!! Today I'm going to Trangle Park, and I'll be looking for the Medallion.!!DAMNIT! Triangle Park is a
reallp small park, about 5 miles or so awaY from Como. It has a really small statue in it, and some huge rocks, and a small sign right in the middle of it that says
Triangle Park. aND IT HAS MORE WRITTEN ON IT, BUT IT'S REALLY FADED OUT!!!!!!!!! I'm not going to say anymore, I was writtig to one of my
friends, and it turns out that all of you pieces of TRAILOR park trash, want to know!

Paco Jr. - 10:55am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12899 of 22141)
Okay- I think it is at the State Capitol Grounds because- 1)studying the past and value in the new = the MN history center is a fairly new building. 2)There was a
biblical passage on the Peace Officers Memorial from Matthew 5:9 (I can't find a four.) 3)The man of fame is Jesse. (Also on John Ireland Blvd) 4)Tome = one
volume of a set. 50 state capitols 5)Trees line the edges. 6)Iconoclast = There are many military memorials 7)Round and White = captiol dome 8)covered quarry =
the capitol itself Not too hard to figure out but not too easy either. Any thoughts?
Leah Logan - 10:56am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12900 of 22141)

Part2--you never know with the clues, but my past hunting experiecne tells me it is too early in the game to be analyzing street names. Those type of clues usually
don';t hit until clue 10 0r 11. (And yes, I know I[;m supposed to think like an iconoclast, but it's STILL too early for those obvious tyupe clues.)
Nonetheless, I will probably check out that part of Phalen this p.m. What will you be wearing?
Also, will someone please tell me more about this Hillcrest park--is that a little dinky park just west of Highland golf course?

Dave Matthews - i can relate all the clues to Hilcrest, except #4. It is a newer rec center, but?... the old part I can't tie in.
I drove out there this morning, and there are some good vibes there. There are 3 ball fields, (home, clue #6), a hockey rink *on* a ball field (goal, #5, although all
the rec cneters, including Linwood put their ice on their ball fields...), there are some yong-ish trees planted in straight lines, the library, Ford Parkway, the sledding
hill located some distance from the ballfileds.
I agree with those who say that becoming an iconoclast means finding the medallion inside of something with a little bit of symbolic value. Would ripping open a
softball to get at the medallion count as destroying a religious icon? Maybe to some...

Hilcrest is located between Highland Park and The Ford Plant on Ford Parkway. There is a library and community center on the grounds - as well as tennis courts,
hockey rinks and baseball diamonds. They have a hill for sledding with fences all around (to keep you from getting to close to the action?)

Anybod got an idea on where Saint Francis fits in? Also where is triangle park? Iconoclast fits the capitol if the clues were written after Nov. 4th i.e. post-Jesse.
dave matthews - 11:00am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12915 of 22141)

For those of you who are currently dictionary challenged, Websters defines "iconoclast" as a person who attacks cherished beliefs, traditional institutions.

iconoclast is a person who attacks cherished beliefs or traditional institutions. I think looking at war memorials is reading a bit too far into it. I'm wondering about this
st. francis thing - he denounced wealth. any thoughts?

the first letter in each of the clues spell out st. francis so far, with a left over "a" . now that might be a stretch, since that is how they identified battle creek in 95, but

Leah - the clue reads as follows: Somewhere in here there's a clue quite clear If you think first of trees in a line From this a name will appear
My thinking is that the name is in the clue - because it is quite clear - true - I have been having random thoughts all night - but what if we took the punctuation out -
are there any names? I can make out Theresa and Toft but that's about it.

Be an Iconoclast which is one "attacks settled beliefs or institutions." It has been a belief that the medallion will be hidden at a park where it was hidden in previous
years. This year I do not think that is the case.
Lisa O'Connell - 11:33am Jan 31, 1999 CST (#12982 of 22141)
Did anyone look up Iconoclast in the encyclopedia?? If you did you will see under the architecture part that "FOUR" is for four curved triangles meeting together to
form a pendentive. A pendentive is the architecture for a dome and "ROUND AND WHITE AND STRETCHED QUITE TIGHT" would be the material used to
complete the dome. A "NINE" is the size of a baseball team and "FIVE" is the size of a basketball team. Maybe I am way off but I did "STUDY THE PAST". Does
anyone know where there is a golf dome with a park nearby?

Madam if you are so sure may I ask why you are sitting at your computer instead of digging for the treasure @ Pahlen?

We just decided that the man of fame is babe ruth and the name ruth is in the tome which would be the bible (book of ruth) Studying the old and value in new refers
to old and new testament. Ruth street could suspect at battle creek. Back to the babe ruth there is lots of references to baseball like bring the treasure home as in
home run. and we think it is hidden in a baseball cause it is white and round and the cover is stretched over it.
