Ter..Ares and I are speculating on the mindset of the clue-writer and anticipating that in the next few clues, the river will be mentioned.

Steve - I know and I tend to agree...and I even understand the golf course thing. Why waste a clue to state that every year....but the zoo? Was there damage there last year?

knit your brows is a Shakesperean coined phrase. Has the meaning of thinking deeply or being puzzled, frowning, etc.

Well 'too think deep" (I got myself into trouble with that one last year)

BUT- Deep under the snow OR there is really more meaning to the clues than previous years ???

NOTE: I did not read anyones ideas between midnight last night and now-so if I reiterate an idea I am sorry.

Steve- When was there a zoo there? Do you know which years? Being that area gets flooded about every spring, it wouldn't be a good place for zoo animals.

A.K.A.-"Raider Of The Hidden Medallion" c('J')o

Clue#1=a large St. Paul park Clue#2=Park consists of hills-I'm imagining a steap area.

This is clearly what I can see from the first two clues-Analyising the history of medallion hunt clues, I conclude that they usually aren't that specific on the first clue- the second clue gives us a little bit more detail of the park but still is general information-we can eliminate parks but we cannot decifer the exact park-this is usually what the clues want to provide-otherwise it would be too simple.

My zoo logic doesn't help figure out the clue writers intentions, but I can't shake this HI exclusion from my thoughts. Each year, some parks are never considered, or at least not really even dug in. Why the concern for the clue-writer? Was it really just an unusual hand shake agreement between the City and the PP - to get the word out to the "dummest hunters" that even if the clues point to Phalen from the get go, not to go to HI?

Steve - I'm thinking there was some concern of damage to that new park. I hope that park is not off limits for future hunts though.

Often when there's been some renovation or upgrades to parks, the medallion has been placed there. Perhaps it was an agreement to hold off another year.

And I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for ThoseMedallingKids!!

Perhaps the zoo was thrown in there to throw us off? The golf courses are a given, but HI is unique and unexpected. So why not take something that is fairly given as being off limits, that is within a park, and put it in there to make us noodle it. It just throws us off the track some. Takes some attention away from the HI aspect...

I hid two geocaches today. One at Crosby, and one at Hidden Falls. These have to be in less-travelled areas, so they are not accidentally found. I look for hollow trees, caves or open areas in a hill, heavy shrubbery, etc.

Get a tupperware container or coffee can, fill it full of junk you don't want, hide it, save the coordinates, log them on to the website, and people will search for it. Saint Paul Parks with MY geocaches:

Como, Highland, Hidden Falls, Crosby

I have not registered the two new ones online yet. I will be adding two a day for the rest of the hunt.

Ok how about this.....

Clue 1... as usual states that the meddalion is hidden and in a St. Paul park... Nothing more than that.

Clue 2...knit means to cluster whether it is clustering string, yarn, or anything else as in knitting a sweater and brow is refering to the edge of a steep place...ie above your eye or at the upper part of a slope.

anyone see where I am going with this. one year the clue.. "Keep your eye on the old guy going by" was given and had nothing to do with an old man it refered to the devise used to lower boats into the river... double meanings people.

I hate the news. I never watch the news. I never listen to the news. I never read the news. That's why I am here. I am here to get away from the news. I don't need new news. I don't need gnu news. I don't need knew news.

For people who do both, it's a bonus to find a cache in the same park where you're medallion hunting.

Oh, and GREEN, the cache at Hidden Falls has some GREEN Mardi Gras beads.

King Boreas ------ If you are referring to the reversing of the type out of a black background, then, yes, your voice has been heard! I also happen to think you have a very good point about black on white being easier to read. Being able to actually read the clues is pretty darn essential to being in the hunt for the Treasure....... PS ---- Being King Boreas, are you EVEN eligible to hunt for the Treasure? If you are, then best of luck in this years hunt.

I still think to that there will be a cluster of something... like trees or pick nick tables or whatever at the top of a steep hill. Not that it will be buried in a knit hat or whatever it was....

Once again sorry for the reppettiion

King Boreas ------- Either you have responded to the Reader Advocate twice or there are two guys who think they are King out there wandering around St. Paul. I also sympathize about the difficulty in reading type reversed out of a black background. The quality of newspaper printing makes this somewhat hard to accomplish......On a good day, it works well.....On a BAD printing day, its anyones guess what the clue is, was, will be.

Consider your concerns passed on if you were actually referring to the reversed type. If your email was actually provoked by something else, please write again.

nice white brand new shoes.. i don't know the brand -- they are in my car.. but let me tell you .. when i dug that bag with the shoes up, i thought i was holding the medallion. i looked inside the shoes and nothing.. my poor heart sunk. but i will find it in time. no worries. Cherokee seems like the right park, but that would be too easy. It's too small. I think it will be in a bigger park.. again my theory leads back to Battle Creek.. enough space to dig for days and days.

MR. NEWSSSSS87 sounds curiously like someone else I know.

Hubby and I just got back from scouting at HF. They are filming there today - saw DDY, Trent, Green, Jake, etc.

Anyway, it would have to be around the parking lot area (zone1 and zone2) to be there. If you start walking the path toward Crosby there are no landmarks. Anyway, the clue could fit there if you believed you were not meant to climb the hills, because the hills around HF are large bluffs and not meant for climbing.

We really had a nice walk - good exercise and pretty day - even if the medallion isn't there.

It doesn't feel like it is there. Jake thinks maybe Highland. Green thinks BC.

Is anyone else out there printing the online clues INSTEAD of buying the paper and clipping them out? I guess the rules say you can print them, or even write them out by hand, instead of clipping them.
