About the series:
The first and only podcast series that investigates the real life treasure hunt that captivated the globe. The podcast follows the incredible story of Forrest Fenn, a New Mexico art dealer who, in 2010, reportedly buried $2 million in gold somewhere in the Rocky Mountains. Fenn then published an autobiography that contained a six stanza poem that allegedly gave clues to the exact location to anyone clever enough and brave enough to figure it out. The hunt enticed hundreds of thousands of searchers from around the world, cost five unfortunate souls their lives, and spawned at least three lawsuits in the wake of the treasure’s discovery in June of 2020. The series contains never-before-heard interviews from people who were close with Fenn, treasure hunters who spent years in the chase, and even a few who claim to know where the treasure chest was buried.

    This is great. The writing and narration is particularly appealing.

    There is no legend of Forrest Fenn. Show me proof that he hid a treasure chest!

  6. Allen K on July 2, 2023 at 7:27 am

    Doug Preston saying, “Forrest was not someone who exaggerates…” is LAUGHABLE! 🤣

    There are a lot of discrepancies in these productions, so I’m guessing they are fiction.

    Happy Birthday Mr. Fenn! 🎂

    The strange thing about having a real life treasure hunt is that you have to actually have a treasure to find. TTOTC didn’t have a treasure chest, so technically it can’t be defined as a treasure hunt.

    Very interesting. Matt, is that you?

    Hear me all and listen good, the reason it was not solved in ten years, is because no one would listen to Forrest. Now all his so-called friends have turned on him. The nookers and the traders were never close, so let us make it so Forrest lied. Nine mile was nothing more than a failed search solution turned into misdirection. The people that are pushing it, have shown they have no respect for Forrest Fenn. They will say he lied and cheated to make their little fake log HOB joke of a solution into a Netflicks joke. The very people who once hung on every word and phrase, now say he misled everyone, never spent anytime at all making the real solution. Gave fishing logs that would help Dal, and lied about the number of searchers who figured out the clues. They want to say I was close, he was the 200-foot searcher, I was within 500 feet. The truth is the chest was found hundreds of miles away near Laramie, WY. That no one could figure out the clues because they played follow the leader. Marvel gaze, dancing with the stars, tight focus, under a canopy of stars. The HOB is Jelm MT the university of WY has an observatory on the mountain, GET IT. Forrest got the KNOWLE GE OF THE PAST AWARD from the school. Ring any bells. Now everyone put them blinders back on. Follow your string hero has she lies to your face, knowing the truth.

    Where was Forrest buried? Was he cremated? Were his remains left where he wanted (his treasure spot)?

  27. Heather Duncan on July 2, 2023 at 8:11 am

    you say he met his wife during the time of instructor training when the online bios say they knew each other in childhood? Hmmm 🤔
