St. Paul Pioneer Press Winter Carnival Medallion Hunt
1970s Clues

 

The medallion was never hidden in the same place twice in the 1970s, and size didn't matter (get your mind out of the gutter and back in the snowbank). Tiny Mears and Irvine stood proud with Battle Creek and Lake Phalen. West St. Paul and Maplewood were brought into the fun, pushing the medallion into deeper reaches of Ramsey County.
