Burying the Creek

I think that may be the issue. The third word you're looking for begins with an F! The other two words are the NAME of the waterway in question (A**** C****)! Those should get you there! HAPPY PLAYING!!!

It's important that you DON'T use the folksy, Midwestern possessive ('s) and instead search for A***N C**** F**** to get the photo you're looking for! Sorry this one is SO FINICKY!

Hmmmm, getting three photos is the correct result, and the code should be in the third one. Give it one more go, and if it's STILL not found, fill out the form at http://aadl.org/contactus and choose summer game, and give us the uncensored version of the words you searched. We'll email you to get things SORTED!

You'll want to go back to that article you found about the creek for clue one and start reading it! When you get to the part where Sam Schlecht describes the creek, notice the four-word phrase he uses to describe it. Then type in those four words into the "Code Text" box toward the top of the badge to get your POINTS!

Let's DIG IN and see if we can figure out the CHALLENGE. Be sure to search using the LOCAL HISTORY and PHOTO dropdowns. That should result in a return of TWO images, and the code is in one of them!

If you've done all that and still not finding it, fill out the form at http://aadl.org/contactus and choose summer game, and give us the uncensored version of the words you searched. We'll FIGURE it out!

Thanks for playing!!!

Try doing a local history search for those all-caps words at the very end of the clue! (You can even copy-paste!!!)

Thanks for playing!!

Try switching the dropdown that says Catalog to Local History, and then you'll see the drop downs in the middle box MAGICALLY change! (But if it's still giving you trouble, fill out the form at http://aadl.org/contactus and choose summer game and let us know where you're getting stuck! We'll be in touch!!)
