PARK CITY, Utah — A treasure hunt across the state is underway again as the Utah Pin Quest returns, challenging participants to collect ten enamel pins from museums across Utah.

The Utah Historical Society launched the collectible challenge in July to build excitement ahead of the Utah Museum’s opening next year. The first batch of pins disappeared in just 48 hours, so the society has more than doubled the amount of pins available for Friday’s restock. The free pins are now available once again, though only while supplies last.

Each enamel pin highlights a different aspect of Utah’s culture and history, but completing the set isn’t simple. Every participating museum carries just one design, meaning collectors will need to hit the road if they want all ten.

Nearby locations:

The Bonneville Trout pin can be found at the Park City Museum
The Sego Lily pin can be found at the Swaner Preserve and Ecocenter Visitor Center
The California Gull pin can be found at the Wasatch County Library in Heber City
