A beautiful spot in far Asian east,
Loves the color they wear that’s pink;
try perusing this year’s soft pastel.
Trying the previous haunts for feast,
Located at the edge of the brink.
Explanation:
Previous haunts indicate typical park, public place. Medallion is hidden on public land in an area where hunters never need to climb or dig. Edge of brink indicated a bluff edge = reference to Memorial Park. East = east part of the city.

Morning sun has taken this hue,
So also, a screwdriver or songbird;
Yet a long walk or short ride.
Parking late at night is legally undue,
Daily sounds of many types are heard.
Explanation:
Morning sun (east). Long walks = hiking path or drive (up the hill). Parking late refers to park rules. Daily sounds = highways, bridge construction, trains, park visitors, wildlife.

Some confuse queries of old for new,
and tales that once followed the hill;
place a ring too big for a finger,
poking but west of a fire venue,
can head to a Bossy thrill.
Explanation:
Queries is a play on quarry. Tales is a play on tails (cow tail). Bossy is a common cow name hence the common cattle call "Come Boss." The fire ring is too big for a finger.
