Post Hunt
The Post Hunt was a puzzlehunt in Washington, D.C., run annually from 2008 to 2016.
It was created by Miami Herald columnist Dave Barry, Gene Weingarten, and Tom Shroder, in the spirit of the Tropic Hunt they had run in Miami, Florida, since 1984.
The inaugural run, hosted by the Washington Post Magazine in downtown Washington, D.C., drew about 5,000 people, including dozens who came up from South Florida. In 2015, for the first time in 10 years, Gene Weingarten, now a columnist for the Post Magazine, joined Shroder, now editor of the Post Magazine, and Barry in designing the Hunt. The final hunt took place on May 22, 2016.
