Hop into spring, don those pastel colors, and join us for the Easter Egg Hunt! This year, Upland celebrates the spring season with scavenger hunts in Los Angeles and Nashville on Sunday, April 17th at 10:00 AM PT and 1:00 PM PT, respectively. There are plenty of prizes up for grabs, including 3 new Spring Chick Block Explorers! Registration is open NOW and will remain open until two hours before the start of each hunt.
This festive edition scavenger hunt will feature Springtime locations around Los Angeles and Nashville. Players will compete in a race to solve a collection of clues that lead to various locations throughout each city. Complete the clues as fast as possible for your chance to win one of the new Chick Block Explorers! Players who win in the Competitive tiers will be awarded either the Pink or Purple Chick explorers, while all players who finish (both Casual and Competitive) will be entered into a drawing for the Yellow Chick explorer. In addition, casual play mode returns 100% of registration fees for both the Los Angeles and Nashville Egg Hunts. See below for full details on all the available Egg Hunts!

You can only register for one Hunt per city, so choose wisely!
Hunt Rewards
The first 100 players to complete the Competitive Los Angeles and Nashville Egg Hunt will be eligible for rewards. Players will be broken into brackets depending on their placement which will determine their rewards, including the Pink Chick and Purple Chick Block Explorers! As always, players will earn back roughly 50% of their registration fee just for completing the hunt, the other 50% will contribute towards the prize pool.
There will be no reward brackets for the Casual Los Angeles and Nashville Egg Hunts. Instead, players who complete the Hunt will receive approximately ~100% of their registration fee through rewards at the completion of each clue.
Egg Hunt Giveaway
Players who complete any of the hunts (Casual and Competitive) will have a chance to win the Yellow Chick Block Explorer! Each hunt you complete will earn you 1 entry into the giveaway. Complete a hunt in both Los Angeles and Nashville, and we will double your entries for a total of 4 entries! Once the hunts have ended, we will pick 100 lucky winners and share them in the #event-winners Discord channel.
Note: Players who won a Spring Chick BE though their placement in the competitive hunts will be ineligible for the Egg Hunt Giveaway.
If you ever get stuck, join us in the #scavengerhunt Discord channel to discuss the clues with other Uplanders. Good luck and we look forward to seeing you at our Los Angeles and Nashville Egg Hunts!
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Casual Playmode?
We understand that Upland Hunts can be competitive and stressful, which means that some players are inevitably left out. For those who would like to try the Hunt without the pressure of competition, this additional hunting tier allows players to complete Upland Hunts at their own pace and try to solve the clues with minimal time pressure. Players who participate in the casual tier will receive 100% of their registration fee (plus a chance to win bonus UPX) for completion of the hunt.
How Do Hunts Work?
Once a scavenger hunt begins, you will need to click into the “treasures” menu and select the hunt you previously registered for. Selecting the first location will prompt you with a clue. Each clue will describe the name of the next location in the hunt and you’ll have to use the resources available to you to find out what the address of that location is.
Throughout the hunt, expect to see a variety of different types of clues including ciphered messages, riddles, and historical references. We highly recommend you have Google handy, alongside a pen or pencil with some paper to help you out. You can also discuss the clues with other Uplanders on the #scavengerhunt Discord channel!
