I'd smell wonderful smells of pine needles, or pinyon nuts, sagebrush-and I know the treasure chest is wet. He was probably referring to this interviewwhere he said the following. Recently, Forrest mentioned that it was possible to use logic to aid in your search, and he was unaware of anyone working in that particular area. These clues allow us to massively reduce our potential search areas. If you are smart enough, you can find it! For instance, Forrest Fenn has given us a whole bunch of clues, both in his writings, and in interviews and blog postings. The person who ownes this quest has told you that you are wrong - yet you continue to push upon anyone who will listen that you are right, no matter what, you are telling FF basically that you are right - you are telling him what his own poem means and where it leads.There is a chest filled with 42 pounds of gold coins and nuggets hidden in the Rocky Mountains somewhere. He addresses you by first and last name in a comment he did publicly make, saying you have not splved his quest and that the chest remains in the same place he hid it 10 years ago.īut your not and it is bizarre behavior to me. It is clearly obvious why FF has not reached out to you and why he hasnt addressed publicly a winner. That you also cant understand why FF hasnt announced himself that the poem has been solved. Do you not understand that? You mention is above statements that you have never actually had a conversation with FF. Your not even respectfully suggesting that maybe you have the solve, you are out right just telling everyone, forcing it actually that the game is over.

And based off his intelligence, his plan for notifying the chest being found will carry over after his death even. That being said, FF was smart enough to put all this together, do you think he would just leave loose ends? Highly doubtful.
And if you really listen to FF when he speaks then you would know he was actually asked, how will the world know when the chest has been found and the search is over? And his reply was, They will know. Im sorry, but who do you think you are to make a self acclaimed notification like that? That's not your place. You are aggressively telling everyone ie. He is assigned to The New Mexican's city desk where he covers a general assignment beat. In his court filing, Erskine lays out a lengthy and complicated explanation for how he used various clues to find the site of the treasure. He said he brought the chest to its hiding place over two separate trips, by himself.
Update package verification took result 1 InFenn told The New Mexican the chest weighs 20 pounds and its contents weigh another 22 pounds. Some have died in the hunt, while others have quit jobs and spent thousands of dollars to try to find it - using clues Fenn gave in a line poem published in his autobiography, The Thrill of the Chaseand online. Fenn said he hid the loot somewhere in the Rocky Mountains. As of this year, an estimatedpeople have gone searching for the chest laden with valuables. Among other arguments for his case, Erskine says abandoning a chest of valuables in the wild, as Fenn says he has done, would pose significant risks and uncertainty. He said the site in question is located in the San Juan Mountains of Colorado, between the towns of Silverton and Ouray and accessible by U. Thank you for reading!
