Hint 1: Finding the Clue
Are you in the right place? Review the Clue #5 hints to make sure. You want to be near the Seattle Great Wheel. Here it is on Google Maps.
Another hint
The first line of the poem brought you to the Great Wheel. Can you figure out what the second line means? It’s “on its side, a smaller ride.” The ride is NOT Wings Over Washington – look around some more!
Another hint
The third line is “a merry song where you belong.” This is the kind of ride you’re looking for! Another hint — it is round like the Ferris wheel, but turned on its side.
Another hint
You’re looking for a merry-go-round! Follow the signs that say “Carousel” into the building, called Miner’s Landing. Poke around until you see the ride. It’s near the end of the building – enter through the doors across from the Great Wheel ticket office. The carousel looks like this:
Another hint
The last line is, “a clue to claim by the grabbing game.” Find the claw game near the carousel (it grabs Smarties candy!) and look for a clue taped to the machine.
Show answer
The clue is a laminated piece of paper stuck to left side of the claw game, near the floor.
Hint 2: Where to go next
The page contains a picture of a mural with the text, “Dig up your final clue in the planter to the left of this mural.” If you don’t recognize it, do you see any searchable words in the image?
Another hint
There are a lot of murals in Seattle, but keep trying combinations of key terms.
Another hint
The most key of the key terms is “Designed by Pike St Press!”
Show answer
This mural is outside of Pike Street Press, right near the Pike Street Hillclimb. Here it is on Google Maps.
