Hunt For The Hoard — April 2020

HuntForTheHoard

CLUE #1

A tip of the top hat to the mock hunt godfather David Allison himself,
Who will be the finder to place this trophy upon their shelf?
The longest standing mock hunt writer still leading the class,
To find this treasure you must peer through the looking glass.

CLUE #2

They all came close but lost something instead,
The white rabbit lost his medal watch but not his head.
The caterpillar lost his pipe, and the Mad Hatter lost his hat.
When you find what they lost you should know what to make of that.

CLUE #3

The Cheshire cat smiles sitting in his tree,
To narrow your search find the missing three,
Get to the end zone with a Rockingham TD.

CLUE #4

I'm not lying or border hop trying,
One step closer don't dismay,
White Rabbit points the way.
A correct call to make to hear what he has to say.

CLUE #5

What was once two is now four lanes,
Diverted around but a segment remains.
Search around to rake in the cash,
While nearby walkers walk and joggers dash.
The backdoor hint received no knocks, Readjust your aim on some different blocks.

CLUE #6

The queens garden is full of flower,
But not where treasure waits.
"Off with their head's" she waged war with the bower,
These buckthorn trees she hates.
"And stack them in piles",
Just nearby the Cheshire cat still smiles.

CLUE #7

Try to find your happy place,
A quarantine distraction a treasure hunt race.
Look to the border and across the street,
There should be some water to dip your feet.

CLUE #8

Hidden in Maplewood but not a Maplewood park,
Look for the notch don't be caught in the dark.
Make the connection as busy as you may be,
Sink your teeth into it or any nearby tree.
Take the pill that makes you smaller,
To see what was there all along.
In full sight to see, still the missing three.
Don't fear the Bandersnatch bark.

CLUE #9

Be very careful not to fall down the rabbit hole,
Wager a guess to align a pole.
It's the wrong rodent if you find a vole,
Triangulating 3 trinkets is your goal.
Look up look down see what you are able.
A caterpillar perch, a rabbits hole, and a hatters table.
