It IS fun! As you know from lurking, ideas and thoughts fly fast and furious
once the clues start coming out... And folks will say, "Bye! I'm outta here! I

Because the San Jose Mercury News is a Midknight-Rider sister newspaper and
they used to have a Hunt, too. I'm sure a take-off on ours. But the paper
stopped doing it because people out there dug everything up and clear to China.
Anyway, my good friend in CA? She used to live in SJ and I'm gonna ask her what
ittiz like to hunt w/no snow. It never snows (or rains) in southern CA...
So... How would you hide The Med in CA, with no snow, and get it to blend in?
In a California naval orange!

llady either that or allison's list from coolercrew.com about the treasure
hunter training progam:
1. Whenever a snow emergency is declared, follow the snowplows around and
completely dig out all the cars they plow in.
2. As a big storm is about to hit, stand on your front steps with your back
to the yard. Toss your car keys over your shoulder. Go back inside and then go
find them the next day.
3. Read up on Occam's Razor (All else being equal, the simplest solution
tends to be the correct one).
4. Do every word jumble, crossword puzzle, and search-a-word you can get your
hands on.
5. Make a list of all the things you can do with $10,000.
6. Turn off the heat in your home for 16 hours a day.
7. Only sleep three hours a night.
8. Move all the snow from your back yard to your front yard.
9. Spend all night on the Internet with total strangers discussing who killed
JFK.
10. Commit the Cooler Crew and Treasure Hunter's Guide Websites to memory.

More of allison's wit found in my e-mail......course I provided the dumb
questions...:)
"Has the medallion been found yet?"
Yes, many times. Prety much every year in fact.
"How do I register a button?"
First you need to find the serial number.
"Are there any good scopes for the med this year in Minneapolis?"
Don't be silly. There's no Frog Pond in Minneapolis.
"Whats a spotter?"
Mythical creatures sort of like Bigfoot. Many people claim to have seen one,
but no one has ever managed to capture one alive.

Ter, when the what-ittiz-hidden-in-clue comes out, like #5 for last year, do
you noodle it or not?
Like, do you just go, "That's what it's hidden in and I'll know when I dig it
up."
Or do you really ponder it, thinking that knowing what The Med's in will help
locate it?
Reason, Tim ignored #5 last year, and so did I - because to me it didn't
matter, I'd know when I dug it up. I'm kind'a curious as to is this normal
(QUIET IN THE PEANUT GALLERY!)? Should I ponder more what The Med's hidden in?

I pay attention as I figure if I can noodle the clue that's telling us what
it's in, then I don't have to noodle it as to what park the meds in. Last year
the what it's in clue was a double stanza. Made one think that the other part of
the clue meant something about what park. It's what sent me to MLK.

Tim, You're right. I did noodle that clue too much. I figured out the dove
box was what it was hidden in. It was the man of mettle, yada, yada, yada that
didn't fit in Como. If I had seen that as what it was hidden in, I woulda been
in Como a lot sooner.

And that is a good stradegy about ignoring what its in clues green. THe
problem is, they dont come out and say "this has nothing to do with the park" at
the beginning of the clue. So it is sometimes difficult to figure which clues go
where.

Good point Timmers and thats exactly where most of us went wrong last year on
that particular clue.We all got the dove box and figured thats all it was hidden
in and that the first part of the clue was telling us more about the park.

do fit something perfectly however, you must immediately discard that idea.

There are lessons to be learned every year.
I remember one year someone was complaining that some clue didn't fit...cuz
it didn't...and it was because it was a park clue and they never made it to the
right park.

having the medallion hidden within something that was hidden within another

Get ready for the Mock Hunt in February at
http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/theallisonwonderland
"tim i think the general rule is that the rules *can* fit perfectly. if they
do fit something perfectly however, you must immediately discard that idea."
That's the lesson I learned last year. If it all makes perfect sense, you're
clearly wrong.
Also, I'd like to elaborate on just how truly evil clue #5 last year was. Now
we all know that every year at least one of the clues tells us what the
medallion is hidden in. Why? Is it because the use of the single word "ace"
should make us realize that we're looking for a playing card box? Is someone
going to pick up something and say "oh, this isn't a Dove soap box, I'm just
going to ignore it"? Of course not. Certainly not after the ear muff incident.
So what is the purpose of this clue? It's primary purpose is none other than to
deceive the hunter into chasing after red herrings.
Now of course we eventually caught onto this and realized there's always
going to be a clue that tells us what it's hidden in that we can essentially
discard. So what did they do last year? They handed us said clue on a silver
platter, clearly proclaiming, "Here it is! Now just ignore me." We were
expecting a clue that wouldn't help us and there it was, end of story. Right?
Wrong! It was all just one big decoy. They only wanted us to *think* we knew
which clue to ignore. And then they throw in the man of mettle. Since we already
knew what it was hidden in, surely this clue had to have some other
significance. Right? Wrong! It was referring to something you couldn't even
possibly look for because it was contained inside the soap box, as if in
anyone's wildest dreams they would have concluded "man of mettle" referred to an
"Ironman" sock anyway.
No, this clue didn't help at all. It's sole sinister purpose was to dupe us
all into thinking we knew what we needed to know, what we expected to know, and
to make us believe that something completely irrelevant was of great importance.
Last year certainly was the revenge of the cluewriter, even if it was a cheaply
gained revenge, and again I say, "opening down below" my butt.

I don't think The Clue Writer(s) were *that* smart, Allison. I, actually,
think you're smarter/deeper.
Think you're reading too much into The Clues, or what The Clue Writer(s)
aren't.

Then there was all the rule breaking the clue writer did last year:
The treasure had never been hidden in the same park less than six years
apart. Last year it had only been 4 years since the previous time at Como
Clue 7 has often referred to the name of a street. Last year it did not.
A park as large as Como is usually revealed somewhat early, in clues 4-6,
instead of clue 9 (I think) like it was last year.
The treasure I don't believe has ever been hidden in two different things at
the same time before
While the treasure was in a park, the clues never stated that it was.
A lot of these are unwritten rules, but still the clue writer seemed to go
out of their way to break as many as possible to make the hunt harder. So it's
hard to say what to expect this year as it seems the gloves are off.

I don't think the clue writer is that brilliant either, but I think clue #5
was their crowning achievement last year. Even though both parts of the clue
refer to what the treasure was hidden in, only one part actualy bothered to
point it out, and in an extremely obvious way. While the other part remained
suspiciously quiet. No, that much was on purpose.

I don't know Rushmore. I suppose you could go to the cooler crew site and try
to figure it out. By Sunday afternoon we'd be on Clue #8. I guess I'd say in
most years it hasn't been found by then. But then depending how much snow we
have by then, it could go earlier this year.

I have a personal message for Sprydogg.... If you were the first one to
accurately name the West Picnic Grounds in Como Park as the spot, where were you
when Steve Worthman, Tim the Hunter, Marley King and myself were there digging
Friday morning??? And incidently, I didn't see any evidence of anyone digging
there before us, and as far as Allison goes, he was the first correctly name
Conway as the park in 99, so maybe you should quit your barking and sit like a

support of Allison, as in, how dare you say that to him, for all that he has
done over the years. I hope that we are able to avoid people like that during

Well thank you everyone. I guess I'd like to point out that while there is a
certain ego contest that goes on here about who can be the first one to be
right, and I admit I take part in that contest, it's certainly not all that this
board is about. So if someone like Tim wants to joke around about who had the
upper hand the previous year, that's all in good fun. But I don't understand the
motivation in getting angry over it or turning the message board into a nasty
battle of egos. It's not really what most of us are here to do. It's not what

Oh, someone wanted something to put on a T-shirt? Well most of you have seen
this before, but here's my suggestion, hehe:
To hunt or not to hunt, that is the question. Whether tis sillier in the mind
to suffer the cold and snow of a Minnesota winter, or to throw down shovels in
the face of Boreas' treasure and by ignoring, lose it? To seek: to dig; No more;
And by a dig to say we find the medallion and the ten thousand wonderful dollars
it makes us heir to, 'tis a consumation devoutly to be wished. To seek, to dig;
To dig: perchance to find: aye, there's the rub; For in those wee hours what
hopes may linger when we have overturned the last virgin snow must spur us on.
There's the respect that makes the hunt of so long life. For who would bear the
burns and bites of wind, the clues read all wrong, the know-it-all hunter, the
pangs of fruitless digs, the treasure's delay, the insolence of Joe, and the
spurns that the successful hunter of the unlucky takes, when he himself might
his job keep by going to work? who would shovels bear, to grunt and sweat under
a frosty sky, but that the hope of something afterwards, the undiscovered item
within whose bosom the medallion resides, intrigues the will, and makes us
rather bear those ills we must than fly to a place where we would know them not.
Thus treasure does make hunters of us all, and the native view of Minnesotans is
sicklied over the pale hope of warmth and enterprises of great size and wealth,
with this regard close their doors and hunt in the name of the coin.

Mainly a place that people can go to see current pictures of the parks, snow
conditions(or lack thereof), digging activity during the hunt, and "pictures by
