Updates for the Second Edition Book (blue cover):

The Case of the Missing Clue 6's

1. Quests are supposed to be a fun challenge, but a nasty automated gremlin has made some of the Quests in this second edition book more of an adventure than any of us expected. Several of the Quests have directions with two clue 5's and no clue 6's! But take heart; a few simple strokes of your pen will set things right. Please change the second clue 5 on the following pages to clue 6, and then you'll be ready to start Questing.

p. 30 / p. 39 / p. 49 / p. 54 / p. 60 / p. 67 / p. 74 / p. 78 / p. 84

And if you see a gremlin running around with a bag full of 6's, please let us know!

2. Oregon Hatchery Research Center Quest -- Clue #4 has been relocated from the stump in the ditch. To get the clue:

"At the Homestead site sign, take the first letter of the first word on the sign and place that letter in square number 4."

   
Updates for both the First and Second Edition Books: 1. HMSC Yaquina Estuary Quest -- the sign for Clue #4 has been replaced. To get the clue:

"Before crossing the bridge, see a sign
forbidding your four-legged friend.
The clue for your number 4 square
Is the 6th letter of the word at the end."


2. HMSC Yaquina Estuary Quest -- the sign for Clue #17 has been removed. However, the letter clue you need is painted on the remaining signpost.
   
Updates for the First Edition Book (green cover):  
  1. City Center History Quest -- Work on the exterior of the Odd Fellows building resulted in removal of the three linked ovals on the facade.

2. Big Creek Park Quest -- A large fallen tree has led to the removal of a bridge and table that had been isolated on a little island. To get the Clue #8 now, you must:

"Cross back to a place
where large picnics stay dry.
On one of the upright posts
Clue 8 you will spy."
