    Hmmm, Washington has fjord-like objects, and, a box wouldn't have to cross them to get to me......

    I'll have to do some research into this one, but I'm 99.999999% certain this eliminates me.
    I've only been doing these BIF's for a little over a year, but every round I keep hearing about secret participants. I'm keeping my eye on this @LehighAce06 fella.

    You may have seen me mention the nearby cemetery where my wife and I take walks. It is home to a very large murder of crows and what one can only describe as a horde of Canada Geese. It's usually peaceful, but there are some days that it is absolute chaos.
    This eliminates me, I believe. Hint #3 may as well if you're referencing St. Paul. Minneapolis has a larger population than Pittsburgh though.
    Didn't @Mbgreg win another LIF recently?

    But what really is large? They don't call it the Great Salt Lake for nothing. Not that we have any UT participants this round. I'm excited to have recently ordered a beer that will tick Utah for me, but that's a story for another thread.

    This thread exploded, and I almost forgot to revisit this LIF. I hope we get photographic proof at the end like @Roy_Hobbs provided. I want to see that dried toad.

    I'll just say Waite Park, MN is at 1075 feet above sea level, if that helps. My city has around 7000 people in it, but my packages go to St. Cloud, with around 70,000 people in it.

    Hint #1: Some of the beers in my target's box(es) will likely be traveling both East and West.

    Hint #2: Like my own home state, my target's state has multiple Köppen climate classifications found within its borders.

    Haul Hint #1: For purposes of this LIF I consider Wisconsin and any beers from that state to be "local" and will be including several WI beers in my box.

    That is true, I’d call the Mississippi River big, as would I call the Colorado River big. Ft Peck in MT is huge as well, depends on the definition, and Frank might use that term large body loosely too. Fudging and fibbing are all fair.

    Hint 1 - I've never shipped to my target before
    Hint 2 - My box is leaving my time zone

    Sort of haul hint - I should be able to hit at least a couple of your wants. One is much more recent than the other, so hope you still want them both :slight_smile:

    Hint 2 excludes me.

    And for another hint myself, and it's the same as yours

    Hint 5 - My box is leaving my time zone (Central)

    Previous hints:

    Hint 1 - I have not shipped to my target before.
    Hint 2 - Your city/town is at a lower elevation than mine.
    Hint 3 - Your city/town has a smaller population than where I have my packages delivered, but bigger that where I actually live (Waite Park, MN)
    Hint 4 - Your city/town was founded before mine.

    Awesome sauce! What’s that old saw about a blind squirrel and nuts? Maybe nevermind on that. But cool, that’s a great run - so - new LIF coming soon once Ozzylizard’s is solved. Right now I’m headed out to get some damn Powerball tix.

    Thanks @BBThunderbolt !!!
