Welcome to
Treasure Hunt Headquarters!

A site dedicated to the
St. Paul Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt

The Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt is a community event and a St. Paul Winter Carnival tradition dating back to 1952. The Pioneer Press Treasure Hunt was conceived by Daniel Ridder, then publisher of the Pioneer Press, when he decided to hide a small treasure chest and print daily clues to its whereabouts in the newspaper. The treasure hunt became an immediate success and that strong following continues yet today. It is a social event that brings together people from all walks of life for a common goal - to decipher the clues and find the treasure.
