Find a park with walking trails.

In this park, bird nests accrue.
Deer pass through; rabbits, too!
In Hugo’s game of hide and seek,
There is no need for soggy feet
To find your golden souvenir.
We hope this clue is crystal clear.

Clue #8
Published on Saturday, June 9, 2012
Whose Wood this is should now have dawned.
Of a Hundred Acres, it falls just shy,
With a bridge for Pooh-sticks, by and by
Beyond the wetlands and the pond.
To locate Spike, first you must pass
Through woodland trails for sunny grass.
Treasure hunts are such a gas!

Clue #9
Published on Saturday, June 9, 2012
Before your final treasure sprint,
A moment’s time for this small hint:
Beyond the ponds, take the second right;
Fix a building in your sight—
Now pirouette just halfway round.
Spike is waiting to be found!
Near half-past two (in the afternoon?)
You’ll be humming Spikey’s victory tune.

Clue #10
Published on Sunday, June 10, 2012
In Clearwater Creek Preserve Spike is hidden.
Make sure you’ve gone where you were bidden—
Beyond the ponds, the second trail.
(There is no curve, this is pass-fail.)
First, sight the townhomes beyond the park.
Then toward the orange pipeline sign
Step forty paces in a line
Along the trail (it’s mowed) to find
Some saplings, left. They serve to mark
Spike’s shaded resting place, below—
The finder prize we’ll soon bestow.
