If we're thinking not in Phalen. Has anyone considered that the reference to Ukraine is about the Russian's military use of Z. As in Z is for Zelda, a muse but who also wrote Save me the Waltz.

I think it’s closer to Frost Ave. frost wrote a few poems about snow. Or the hill is a giant hill of snow, a months worth.

Diamond in rough may be Argyle street. I'm convinced it's at Como. For me, all the clues fit.

I think this clue means that CW has been giving clues that are red herrings to different parks to keep the hunt going longer, but now they will not steer us wrong - rhis clue tells us which park it's

That's not true Bob, I've seen you be right before, and even quite insightful on a few occasions. David On

I've never been right about the clues or the park before, so something is nagging me about Phalen. Secretrose usually guesses the right park before many others who post on here, so maybe the

I think that hill is the spot. Either that or in line with Hoyt which can mean "up on a hill". David On

I have been looking at Phalen Park on Google maps street view for many days now and the only 'hill' I can see in that area is behind or on the south side of the Activities Center.

Clue 5 says "seek diamond in rough". Not *a* diamond, just "diamond". Well diamond is compressed carbon, specifically a C4 molecule. What if C4 is then a clue to the Civilian Conservation Corps

Agreed. Lots of crusty snow out here and a decent amount of ground to cover. As you say there’s not a hill that stands out, some mild berms maybe.

Oh, that is pretty convincing actually, especially with "fields where children playeth". I remember a couple of slight hills in that area, unless they mean a snow bank. But there are also some

I think the arch of light I think might actually be the Rec center. Light at night comes through the big window when the gym lights are on. Kinda you gotta be there thing.

Oh, Frank and Earl, that's a good thought. I'm not so sure about the rec center area even if those streets are there. I kind of feel like the things they mention early on are often closest to the

It’s fun to look on Google maps. You can see where the traffic is going. Wheelock pkwy going East and west before and after the south entrance to Phalen have been red and over at como by Churchill

I’ve been wrong before this hunt. But I’d be shocked if direct and dignified weren’t allusions to Frank and Earl streets.

So I feel like going long means taking Phalen Dr. deep into the park. If you go as far as you can, there is a Do Not Enter sign on a road that is one way going the other way, which would make sense

Thanks David - Your formatting is better than mine. As I said in another post, the SW area of Phalen is looking great.

Kudos To the Phalen backers. Won’t steer (wheel lock) cements it for me. don’t work on your fade = away from golf no Need to wade = not near water go long could mean as in football, but I think
