The Allison Wonderland
The Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt is part of the St. Paul Winter Carnival every year. While the prize can only go to one winner, The Allison Wonderland is dedicated to the community spirit of treasure hunting. Here, not only will you find out about the Pre-Dig Gig, the Rehash Bash, and various other social events, but we also discuss the clues here in a team effort to decipher them (albeit not always successfully). This is a place to discuss ideas respectfully, report on what's happening "on the ground", and provide each other with useful information. This is a public group so expect that anything posted will be seen by everyone.

Re: We Got Schooled
It is indeed clue 7 that has that rhyme. There aren't any others, but I do think that is what the first verse is referring to. There is Varret, but he

Re: Clue #9
So the heavenly view part I get as reference to BV, but what about the "Study his path?" A few other clues can't quite match either....I dunno, will drive over
Re: We Got Schooled
David, could you point out which clues you think have the '-ent' and '-oh' sounds? As far as my poetic ears can tell, only clue 7 has that rhyme. And I'm not
