Seeking the Hidden Treasure of the Rocky Mountains
Seeking the Hidden Treasure of the Rocky Mountains
Six years ago, Forrest Fenn hid a treasure chest of gold and precious gems in the Rocky Mountains. The treasure map exists in the form of a poem called, “The Thrill of the Chase.” Even with the clues, the treasure remains unfound … Fancy an adventure?

Why are none of them equipped with metal detectors?
Conman Fenn is looking for a safe passage out of his hoax. He knows that lawsuits loom over his con and he is groping around for a way out.
Ended badly. Too much secrecy.
This guy was rich before he hid the treasure… he couldn’t have done this for pure entertainment. no no he’s clever. People say it’s under water?would he really place a 16th century bronze chest full of gold and diamonds under water? well maybe. the chest, nor what’s in the chest can NOT rust, making it relatively safe. Forrest Fenn is a fisherman, which could have somthing to do with this theory. But underwater.. what water is it under… presumably a larger body of water.. or narrow and long…. would he make it too obvious? if so.. the answer is the red river. Maybe around the river. but again… too obvious. Right now I’m in the process of decoding Fenns poem. he said there are nine clues… I think there’s more.
They found it
i love gold!!!!!!
Think of it this way start by contacting your lawyer and ask where could he have put it legally , then start the hunt in the remaining area with the clues you know ….
Montana, Treasure County
COLD COULD BE COLD COINS HE SAID WORTH THE COLD. IT’S MIKE SAYING COLD HARD CASH IT’S NOT IN WATER. N IF U GO IN SUMMER THERE’S NO SNOW
Well i hope someone doesn’t destroy nature.
Update: Someone freakin found it!!
I used to work in yellow Stone national Park. One of my favorite things to do was to tell kids about this hidden treasure. I would give them a copy of his poem if they promised me that if they found it to give me $100. Love the joy of a good mystery.
Who’s here after someone found it?
Amazing video of heavy loads and water high. https://youtu.be/ZqAxsbAp6DI
he just save it’s not in cave or tunnel . she went there
It’s over
ride the cumbres toltec scenic rail way while reading the poem. chama new mexico.
I’m moving Florida has no treasure
we need nathan drake NOW
Was this the treasure that was just found in The Rockies?
Found It I’m now a Millionaire
And finally they found it today 🙌🙌🤫
The treasure has been found! 10 years! the person who found it has asked to stay anonymous but proved the find by emailing Mr fenn a photo of his find.
Im new to this and im wondering do you need the book or the poem??
"I’m a full time treasure hunter."
Got it. So you’re unemployed.
https://youtu.be/2KkIjPrhO2s Come see the images I found in the Poem and Map.
Fenn if you see this can you just give me one gold. 😭
UPDATE: The treasure has been found!
He his gold choco coins
😃 👉https://youtu.be/34f327Qtihs
Turn out the treasure was love all along
The first clue is "Begin it where warm waters halt." That could mean a hot spring that’s frozen over or dried up!
The gold is the forest, idiots.

Forrest Fenn’s treasure has been found recently unfortunately… "Home of Brown" is in Chalk Creek Canyon… He was the head Superintendent of the MARY MURPHY Mine in St Elmo. Remember Mary M headstone in the Book? Here is a video breaking it down all the clues to the poem and showing the 10x10x5 hole beside the tree with the "Blaze" in it.
https://youtu.be/mU5Py8FVJWM
If you want to see where the Poem and Map leads.
If you want to know where warm waters halt is.
If you want to know what the "blaze" is.
If you want to see where it all leads.
If you want to see the 3 second video of it’s location in FORREST FENNS
OWN BACK YARD!
I can prove it by the Poem and the Map.
My dad is in his 70s and hes been having the best time going over the clues and planning a vacation to new mexico. Im really glad to see him excited. Not much thrills an old vietnam vet but fenn knows how to get him really excited. He even started to use the internet just to help him research and he finally bought his own desktop a few weeks ago! I wish i were more into it but im more of a tech person myself… send me to mars eff your gold tbh.
If 4 ppl died over this rich dude over he’s material things that he purpose put that lead deaths who people went to look for it if I would have cause one death that lead to death over my material things I would of been put to jail
Some animal ate it probably
North of Santa fe cant be in colo then.
YA REALLY THINK HE HIDE $2.M ANYWHERE ??? NOPE HE TRICKED EVERYBODY ,,,,,,, HE CAN’T EVEN REMEMBER WHAT HE HAD IN IT,,,,,,,ALL BS.
Trout is in cold water so warm water all over the Rockies and cold water starts and trout streams in to many places. I dont thing WWWH is actually the first clue. He was a pro guide at 14 and went alone in there and so no way he would get on the water in a boat alone..thats a no no.

My findings from my treasure hunt Colorado trip based on the following clues: From Fenns book 1. Biggest fishing hole ever(actually was a fish hatchery Pond), 2. middle child of three Skippy, Forest, and June. 3. Chalk the memories once again CHALK : now from the poem most important of the 9 are 1. Begin where warm waters halt(Hot Springs into a creek), 2. too far to walk(3miles), 3. below home of brown( below fish hatchery). OK now find a creek with hatchery and hot springs close together say 3miles apart between MT and SantaFe. there are two. best choice for me was CHALK Creek Nathrop CO it has Princeton Hot Springs and 3 miles from it there is a Fish Hatchery. Draw a horizontal line just below the Hatchery and you’ll see between it and the Hot Springs 3 pieces of water Chalk Creek(Skippy) middle irrigation canal(Forest) and third is another irrigation canal (June). The middle irrigation canal per 2010 TOPO map shows it had water presently it is dry. WHY IS IT DRY? well I went to the hatchery and walked up the dry canal and found that a HUGE tree had been fallen over the maintenance path and dry canal bed. that really seemed odd to me. I climbed over the tree and continued up the maintenance pathway and WALLA the entire side hill had been either by nature or dynamite been swept down to Chalk Creek. My guess is that the water rights people found the treasure chest in their water canal that feeds the entire valley. They were probably pretty pissed off that some idiot would place a foreign dirty object in the water supply to the entire valley below. I’ll bet they took the chest sealed off the canal at the Y from the June canal and blew up the bank and dropped the tree to cover their ass. What’s pretty sad is that they haven’t said a word to anybody and some people have died trying to find the chest. It all fits too perfect. So Good luck check out the Chalk Creek the chest could be in the slide rubble. My foot print is in that loose sand and when you look up toward the June canal you’ll some serious very loose boulders. With that I got the hell out of there because these people seemed pretty upset to say the least.
