At Kevin's property on Beaver Mountain before everyone else arrived on Friday, Kevin & his kids and Chuck & Snick made up names for all of the locations on the property. The map was drawn by Tylee.

The Komfy Kaden - Tent site (vacant)

The Stop & Drop - Outhouse

Tylee Ann Happy Land - Picnic tables/main gathering spot

Snick Pit - Horseshoe pit

Fart Fort - Log structure

Sleepy Hollow - Hammock

Quad Corral - 4-wheeler parking area

The adults gathered around on Saturday while the kids were off playing to make up the following clues for a treasure hunt....

We've gathered you 'round the fire pit

for something fun to do.

A treasure hunt is what's in store...

here's a map and your first clue:

In the fort where you can fart,

your very first clue will loom.

Search the north wing and it will be

in the corner of the room.

The Lower Lair is your next stop,

you'll think you're pretty cool.

The very next clue that you must find

is in a box of tools!

Toward the Sleepy Hollow

is the way to point your shoes.

Your clue is on the hammock's wood...

If you take a snooze, you lose!

Hanging from a lower limb

at Halle's Hideaway,

just like a plane is your next clue.

Read it, then run away!

Jog down to Quiver Corner,

but don't trip as you go.

If you get to the target, you've gone too far -

Look for a tree as white as snow.

At the Kozy Kobe

a pink flag hangs in the air.

Hurry up and find your clue

before getting eaten by a bear!

At the Grumpy Groundhog,

the clue is plain you'll see.

It's hiding underneath a bush

that looks like a Christmas tree.

(oh da do da day!)

The Outer Limits is really far

so hurry... don't be late!

Watch your step, 'cause there may be puke

as you open the tailgate.

As soon as you finish reading this poem

run to Symphony's Sleeper.

You'll find your clue on the porch

sitting underneath the sweeper.

Over in the Quad Corral

there is a place just dandy.

Look inside the saddlebag

of the quad of Brad & Candi.

There's a place at the Komfy Kaden

under a big rock, you know.

When you pick it up to get the clue,

don't drop it on your toe!

Tylee Ann Happy Land

is where we stop to eat.

Look real hard, you'll find a clue

under a wooden seat.

There is a clue at the Stop & Drop...

it's behind the light, you see.

Take the note and read the clue -

don't stop to take a pee!

Over at Kode's Cook Shack

it is a happenin' spot.

You'll quickly find your next clue

beneath the cowboy coffee pot.

This hiding place is an easy one...

just look a little bit

under the horseshoes for your next clue

in a place called the Snick Pit.

Now you've gone through all the clues...

you're each as sly as a fox.

Open up the shed's side door

and find your treasure box!

*The treasure was a Rice-Krispy Treat and a fruit-rollup for each kid.
