Forrest Fenn Treasure Finally Found In Rocky Mountains | TODAY
Hr dont want to pay taxes
I am the man that found the location of where the treasure was supposed to be and e mailed him on the 6th of June with exact gps location, he then told the world someone had found it but no other info was available, I had found the location August 2018 but because nothing was there I kept looking. It was a hoax, I found every clue and hint and the secret that the numbers in ttotc actually confirmed the last 3 digits for lat/long of each hint. The last 3 digits for where the treasure was supposed to be ended with 423 and 328, His dads burial location and the number of missions he flew in Vietnam. 5 people died looking for the treasure and 350,000 spent millions looking and it was all a hoax. I do have the blaze in my possession. The treasure location where it was supposed to be was only 35 feet from where I parked and alot of people drove by it every day 40 to 50 feet from it. Pine Mountain, Wyoming
so how long did he keep the treasure hidden??
At least we know where the Tomar Emeralds aren’t
Now that Forrest has passed, his "special place in the forest north of Santa Fe" should be revealed. If you look at the Vallecitos Mountain Retreat website at: https://www.vallecitos.org/ , and then look at the photos (select Why Vallecitos, then Photo Gallery), you will see some hints that Forrest mentioned, such as: some case bronze bells similar to the ones Forrest made and buried; a photo of the Vallecitos Rio, the "water high" in the poem; and a photo of a large rainbow ("the poem leads to the end of my rainbow" from the jacket of The Thrill of the Chase); and if you open Google Maps and look at the grassy area south of the Vallecitos ranch house, you will find a large white rock wheel, as in "Try the wheel" as Forrest said to one searcher: https://www.dropbox.com/s/yw1sdttynrfxcnf/2%20Vallecitos%20Mountain%20Retreat-%20Try%20the%20Wheel.jpg?dl=0 – – – – -The Google Maps coordinates for the Blaze (a large black painted "nn" on top of a big white boulder) where the blaze is still visible at: 36.6355, -106.2105 – – – – – – –
I hope they say where. I wish a lot of people would do that. it’s just cooler to take a hike when you know you could find something.
Incredible
Absolute mad lad
Turns out you had to pay attention to the numbers in the poem and ignore the words.
ITS FAKE
the fishing string and stick was a noise maker , in case a bear got too nosey…it spun when it was opened …
8hhx
I’m glad the guy kept his identity anonymous because if not he would probably get people trying to find him and threatening him
He doesn’t have to tell us who found it but at least tell us where it was hidden all this time
It is the actual one piece.
There was never any treasure, if you read his poem, it’s about his depression and loneliness and simply want people to go out and find the treasure so his name would be remembered. After 10 years, he’s had enough. He could show us the picture that the guy sent with the treasure without disclosure of the person or the location, but no.
Hehe how could u do that people
RIP Forrest Fenn 1930 – 2020
Please, may I share something special with you?
I sat at my computer in 2010 and prayed to God to show me where His Eden was located.
*Look what I found within 15 minutes of searching Google Earth*

I am that man
That wished he was the guy that found it
Time to find the tomar emeralds
These pictures are fake. The gold plated on scale size in the box don’t match the ones on the table! Also Fenn’s hair is parted on the wrong side of his head!
This what I would do if I ever won the lottery or any other large amount of money
Remains undiscovered for 10 years, it finally found and the Fenn dies a month later ? He told someone where it was !!!!
Skippy had an old car with no top; it had one big seat in the front and that’s all. One day, when a buffalo wandered out of (yell)ow STONE Park and started tearing up fences, Donnie Joe thought we should go out and round it up.
When George Frison was 11 years old he had his first, and most unforgettable, incident with a bison bull in a state park near Thermopolis, about 50 miles (80 km) from his home ranch, when ten loose bison wandered from the park, and Frison was able to secure permission to assist local cowhands to escort the bison back to the park. A young bison bull that created too much confusion among the other bison was left behind. Frison found the bison bull grazing a few days later and decided to outrun the bull on horseback. After both Frison and the bison cleared two fences, the bull stopped at the third fence, turned 180 degrees and decided to charge. Frison soon learned how an awkward and docile bison could soon be a danger, as both Frison and his horse toppled to the ground when the bull passed between the horse’s legs. However, all three managed to sustain no injury (Frison 2004).
Lost in some of the remembrances of Forrest is his generosity. Forrest used his chase not for personal profit, but supported a local independent bookseller and raised tens of thousands of dollars for cancer victims. He was a benefactor and donated artifacts from his personal collection over the years to the Buffalo Bill Center of the West in Cody, Wyoming, on whose board he served for several years. Despite his years of disagreements with academics over the subject of archaeology, he supported and served on the board of the George C. Frison Institute at the Department of Anthropology at the University of Wyoming. Dr. Frison passed away the very same day as Forrest.
Next I hope they find the Tomar Emeralds :/
Not to mention probably feels guilty that people died so it’s best he called it off n not make him public enemy
Now someone just needs to find the Tomar emeralds.
It has not been found,and I know exactly in Wyoming,where it is,but been to sick and broke to go get
It’s pure BS
They should put a plaque up where the treasure was.
Rest In Peace Forrest.
I have a doubt did the treasure chest find really,,,🧐

Hmmmmm
Ik van 0 tot 9
I found the treasure
Gadi, take a crack at the Great U.S. Treasure Hunt. It’s not $2 million, but it’s still fun!
One big hoax.
Forest fenn has past away. What a sad thing to hear. I hope one day there will be another man that will make another thrill of the chase. .. who am i kidding . There will never be anyone like him … rip rest easy good sir .. you waited to go tell someone found it … i know hes looking down smiling now..
Someone is trying to trick MR Forrest Fenn to reveal his Treasure Location Treasure is sill there anyone can photoshop any photos these days like if you agree with me
I don’t believe there ever was treasure hidden.. why would he not name the person that found it, or why not tell us where is was found.. I heard last week he passed away, Rip Forrest Fin your story almost got me out there searching..
Avid follower of Fenns treasure..and either he lied or treasure not found in Wyoming. The closest border to him is Cheyenne Wyoming. 7 hours 15 minutes…one way from Santa fe…
He said he did it in one afternoon and 2 trips to car.
How fast can this guy drive?
Dont believe me? Look it up..
Headline reads
The Treasure is Not Under Water and was Hidden in Two Trips / One Afternoon

About the Vallecitos Mountain Retreat, that "special place in the forest north of Santa Fe": Here is a quote from an article in the New Mexico Magazine in 2015 by Don J Usner: ". . . . .While Mudd was writing and working at the ranch [now the Vallecitos Mountain Retreat Center] and running his environmental organization. he met the man who would ultimately transform the ranch into a retreat center. Mudd recalls that Grove Burnett, a newly minted environmental lawyer, simply walked into his office in 1971 and offered to help Mudd’s organization. Mudd hired him, and Burnett, along with his wife at the time, Linda Velarde, began to spend time at the ranch with their two children. It became a haven for both families. – – – – – When in 1992, Mudd found himself in financial difficulties, he sold the ranch to Burnett and Velarde and TWO FRIENDS (philanthropists who wanted to REMAIN ANONYMOUS), who created a nonprofit corporation, assembled a board of directors, and set out to realize their vision for the property. – – – – – "We were clear from the beginning that we wanted to make a refuge and retreat center for meditation", says Burnett, the founding teacher at the Vallecitos Mountain Retreat, as it was initially called. "Basically, we wanted to make it a refuge for people, too.." – – – – Burnett says that as the board began to formulate a plan, they kept coming back to the words of Henry David Thoreau, who in 1854 wrote, "I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived." – – – – "Those words were the cornerstone of our philosophy", Burnett says. "We wanted to create a sanctuary for people to take refuge. It was as simple as that. That was our guiding principle, and it has remained so for the last 25 years." – – – – In 1994 the first retreat, for environmental leaders from around the country, was led by the renowned mediation teacher, Joseph Goldstein, who was also on the founding board of directors. It was Goldstein who recommended that the board steer clear of making Vallecitos a Buddhist center. They heeded his counsel, and the refuge remains rooted in teaching dharma mediation– but as secular, mindfulness training." https://www.vallecitos.org/ – – – – – –
Love it
It’s my belief that this treasure wasnt actually found, but Fenn simply claimed that someone found it to stop searches, for a few reasons.
1. He’s getting old, and knew that nobody would find it before his death, leaving the treasure completely undiscovered and lost forever.
2. Many people have died on this hunt, and simply wanted to stop receiving daily flak for it.
Exact location needed.
"Under a canopy of stars in the lush forested vegetation if the rocky mountains"
I’m more interested in the location than the treasure or the one who found it.
Or maybe nothing was ever hidden all, nothing proves other wise
It’s a hoax, there’s no evidence there was any treasure to be found
