The Boundary

The general location of the hunt will take place in and around downtown Knoxville, TN. A map showing the boundary of the hunt will be released prior to the event's start date.

Riddles

All riddles and clues are designed to be solved from publicly accessible areas only.

Once you solve the starting location, use the subsequent riddles and clues to guide you through the city to various other locations that are hidden in the riddles, like a game of connect the dots. Some locations are quite close to one another and some are not. Solving all the riddles correctly will lead you to the resting place of the hidden medallion.

Riddle Release

Once the contest begins, riddles will be released over the course of three weeks.

Finding The Medallion

The medallion is on public property and can be found without any digging, excavation, or disturbance to the environment.

If no one has found the medallion a week after the last riddle is released, we will begin to start narrowing down the boundary to the starting location until the medallion is found.
