The hunt for Forrest Fenn's $2 million hidden treasure
The secret is hidden in a poem that starts like this: “Begin it where warm waters halt.”
Zack wrote an entire feature filled with maps, illustrated clues, and even more video. You can read and watch here: http://www.vox.com/a/fenn-treasure-hunt-map
Sometime between 2009 and 2010 an 80 year old man by the name of Forrest Fenn trekked out into the Rocky Mountains and hid a bronze chest filled with over $2 million dollars worth of treasure. The secret to the location of the treasure is contained within a six stanza poem. Forrest Fenn’s treasure, as it’s come to be known, has captivated men, women, and children around the country and world and has lured many people to the Rocky Mountains in the hopes that they’ll find the gold.

JUST USE DRONES WITH METAL DETECTORS
Cool story
Imagine 75 year old man going up the hill to the cave,carrying a bronze chest filled with gold.
Soon as he does I’m gonna go get the treasure
Who is here after someone discovered the treasure??
Forrest Fenn has passed away on September 7th less than three months after the treasure was found. Coincidence?
It was on the ISLAND in backyard at his gallery
I thought about looking for it when I made my trip out West visiting historic place, but when I found about 30 places that could have been considered the Home Of Brown I decided it was just too vague and someone would just have to get very lucky to stumble upon the right trail.
how would he know that there were people 250 feet away from it when he lived in New Mexico?
Onepiece hunt
What’s some truth worth?
@vox have you ever watched the Wizard of Oz played to the Pink Floyd Darkside album? I found a book that Fenn used which matches his memoir. It’s amazing and probably a large part of the hunt never known. I’d love to talk with you guys about it, given you were the first video I watched about this hunt, years ago.
Too bad they didn’t know there’s a Joe Brown launch next to the Yellowstone River. Near the Wyoming border
Lol humanity isn’t going to live for 1,000 years let alone 10,000 years on this planet if we keep trashing it.
I figured out where it is.. but it wasn’t worth the trip with the old man babysitting the treasure and snatching it back anytime somebody gets close
Life is like a Box of Treasure
You never know what your gonna get out of looking for it..
Maybe that’s the treasure.. in it’s self.
I am a true adventurer
U said he loves practical jokes😂
Fyi you’ll see him walking towards you with a smile on your way through, probably talk to him without even realizing it
Your YouTube Facebook YouTube videos resume marvel gaze the Blaze you are
Came back here after I heard he has passed away. This video was the first I heard of his treasure and it sparked a lure to try and find it. But it seems the treasures been found and now Fenn is gone. Now all we have is memories.
Watch it be under his house lol
Is this what the one piece crew feel like
I love that couple 10 : ……

Update the video. Treasure was found in 2020.
I don’t think he buried anything… Treasure is heavy to lug around for a long time.
Mr. Forrest Fenns special place it would teach us about ourselves
The treasure was finally found last year!!
Keep your hands on the steering wheel or walk. I don’t sub to dangerous drivers

This sounds like one piece
I have a map that is holding a treasure hunt in a island
I think it’s in Cody Wyoming
I think you guys were really close to it, if only you would have spent more time near lamar ranger station.
There legally aren’t many places a person could even put their treasure, it’s not the 70’s anymore, he’s got it stashed in his own property and can see anybody on their way to the treasure and beat them to it
If you really wanted to find it, just take a ride down the water 🌊
The hushed giant bilaterally frame because partner coherently rhyme as a messy cart. cynical, gabby friday
that shot with the grazing bison and rainbow in the background is just stunning
Better off buying Bitcoin and holding it until 2028
MAY GOD DELIVER US FROM EVIL
Honesty and god
I LOVE U MR FORREST GUMP FENN
thanks for all the fun!
Who’s here after the finder came out???
the story is still being written
Ridiculous show called “expedition unknown” did an episode on this too
Sad that He is now dead, But atleast Jack Stuef was able to find His treasure before Fenn dies
UPDATE: According to Forrest Fenn, the treasure has been found!
"It was under a canopy of stars in the lush, forested vegetation of the Rocky Mountains and had not moved from the spot where I hid it more than 10 years ago. I do not know the person who found it, but the poem in my book led him to the precise spot. I congratulate the thousands of people who participated in the search and hope they will continue to be drawn by the promise of other discoveries."
