Upon a field of gold

Tiny to behold.

This is a small silver and enamel pendant, very beautiful colors of gold and carnelian.

|
 |
| Overview | |
Welcome to Raleigh Treasure Hunt
How it works: On the Equinox I hide a silver key, and design a poster that gives the first clues to it's location. The poster ($) and a small card (free) will become available at sunset on the equinox. The Spring Equinox 2012 hunt begins on March 20 at 7:27pm. If you know Raleigh well enough, and solve the puzzle first, I'll give you a prize. The puzzles can take from 18 hours to three months to solve. Anyone can play, but if you want to win the jewelry prize, you need to buy a current poster. If you win without buying a poster, you get a silver key. There is also a second and third place prize.
To get the Posters and card at the release, come to the Boylan Brewpub on Boylan Ave. in Raleigh, NC.
at 7:27 pm on Tuesday March 20.
You can find the treasure maps at Ornamentea and the Third Place Cafe.
The puzzle usually takes weeks or months to solve, so jump in.

The girl in the wood
If seen, would have a mess.
She's wearing just a tablecloth
Perhaps she needs a dress.
