The Search for an Eccentric Millionaire’s Hidden Treasure Chest | The New Yorker Documentary

The Search for an Eccentric Millionaire’s Hidden Treasure Chest | The New Yorker Documentary

In 2010, Forrest Fenn published a set of clues about a secret trove, estimated to be worth at least a million dollars, that he’d hidden in the Rocky Mountains. Sara Joe Wolansky’s documentary “Finding Fenn’s Gold” follows some of the treasure seekers, who were captivated by the mystery as much as the promise of riches.

    The sad thing is the solution itself is wonderful well thought out and brings the love of God’s art and a man’s ability to understand how people think. He put the biggest hint right in front of people and for ten years they ran right where he wanted Yellowstone. The truth is very few figured out wwwh and the HOB and only the early 200-foot searcher the solver and the finders ever came within a mile of that chest location. There were many who came within 500 feet over the ten years but they were not searchers and most never heard of Forrest Fenn. The chest was not found in Yellowstone or even close to it. I know the real location and it was confirmed by Forrest before he passed. I am so fed up with all the so-called solvers. If they think Forrest would not have told them they solved it, they did not know the man at all. He waited over ten years for someone to follow the path he left and it was not Jack.

    I found the decryption using this key: H-8, L=12, B=2, N-14, M=13, C=3, R=18, K-11
    Plug it into the poem,
    "As I have gone alone in there" = GASOLINE (the blaze)
    "And with my treasures bold" = MENSA DSR (wise and the place: Dinosaur) and I have much more…

    I know exactly where it was.

    I have news for Justin Posey. Conspiracy theories didn’t start to form. The truth began to come to light.

  10. In My Opinion on August 1, 2023 at 9:47 pm

    Funny this is the video used by Heritage at first to advertise the treasure.. hmmmm Could Mr Posey be LLC

  11. Randy Ruyle Channel on August 1, 2023 at 9:48 pm

    Any searchers here still waiting for the "Back Story". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wl7QLAinpPM Jack can’t offer one because he doesn’t have one. Pure and simple!

  12. Tim Miller on August 1, 2023 at 9:50 pm

    Umm maybe follow the clues so you can….oh wait. Still find nothing

  13. Derfel on August 1, 2023 at 9:51 pm

    Hey newyorker. I am the true solver. I have the scoop if you want it ✌️😁

  14. Ralph Taylor on August 1, 2023 at 9:53 pm

    Yes, Cynthia, you are pathetic!

  15. Smokin Joe on August 1, 2023 at 9:53 pm

    cinthia was hired to pull the chest. this is a scam

  16. Ian Leirfallom on August 1, 2023 at 9:54 pm

    Hey New Yorker! You may want to read my book before you do another one of these ill-prepared docuwhatevers. You would be surprised at how crap your research was. I’m not sure how many years you studied, but I put in 7+ and none of it was in your video. The title is – The Catalyst: A Mystery of Indulgence. Good luck with future endeavors.

  17. Phinyx on August 1, 2023 at 9:55 pm

    I can prove where it was, all these people have it wrong. The treasure has nothing to do with 9mile hole. Fenn didn’t stow the chest in Yellowstone national park.

    What absolute losers!

  22. Michelle Baker on August 1, 2023 at 10:06 pm

    I think it’s a strange cruelty not to share the location with these searchers who loved Fenn. As if they would destroy the area he loved so much.

    Jack please show some compassion, nothing is worth causing so much pain to people. Destruction of the area is a thin excuse, these people would never harm the place.

  23. Lotte Eekhof on August 1, 2023 at 10:07 pm

    Whutttt… why are those people mad……… its pathetic, that there was someone better in understanding the clues and doesnt connect to a group doesnt mean he wasnt dedicated to the chase….. dont blame him if you’re just slow.. I tought it was about the chase not the treasure….

  24. Derfel on August 1, 2023 at 10:07 pm

    The Little Brown Signs Solve…..

    Tantalus Creek to Harlequin Lake via the Grand Loop.

    "Take it in the canyon down"

    Take in the sites along the way, they are the clue locations.

    *Artists Paint Pot (drawing near).
    *"M"onument "G"eyser, ("M"arvel "G"aze).
    *Beryl Springs (in the wood, "burl").
    *Caldera Rim("Cold"dera Rim, worth the cold).
    *Iron Springs, (heavy loads water high).
    *Secret Creek, ( I can keep my secret where).
    *Tuff Cliff (no place for the meek).
    *"T"errace "S"prings, ("T"ary "S"can’t).
    *Madison Amphitheatre (here me all and listen good).

    Follow these to the biggest fish in Yellowstone, Harlequin Lake.

    Freaking white people lol

  26. JOSEPH CLARK on August 1, 2023 at 10:08 pm

    People still talking about this?? I guess with the number of views most have moved on and no longer listening.

  27. AS I SO YOU on August 1, 2023 at 10:09 pm

    Promoting this scam is not wise.

  28. Matthew Kleid on August 1, 2023 at 10:11 pm

    I’m convinced the chest was placed across the Madison River at Nine Mile Hole. This seems to be the prevailing view. And that Rudy Greene has found the precise location based on similarities of the logs.

  29. Rachel Shinall on August 1, 2023 at 10:12 pm

    looks kind of like rockefeller

    The chase was meant to last a hundred or even a thousand years. The book and the poem is all that is needed. The solution is still there. Why not keep trying to solve it?

    Bend over and smell the Roses

  44. Ralph Taylor on August 1, 2023 at 10:34 pm

    Forrest Fenn did not write a poem containing clues that would lead Searchers to the treasure. He wrote a poem that got at least 5 men killed and then he sent Shiloh Old to retrieve the treasure chest when the Lead Searcher got close. I’ve got $1,000 for anyone that can prove me wrong.

  45. Smokin Joe on August 1, 2023 at 10:35 pm

    this is a huge scam, the chest was never hidden and now it is illegally being auctioned as a treasure chest contents when it was never hidden. it was called off and jack stuef was hired to go get it and that is why jack did not give out a solve because he does not have one.

  46. apolo apolon on August 1, 2023 at 10:37 pm

    the treasure is spiritual, yo should stop the quest.

  47. Y on August 1, 2023 at 10:38 pm

    It would be cool if jack placed another chest in the same location to be found by someone who does the same so there’s a never ending cycle of searching for Fenn’s treasured location

  48. mcdouche2 on August 1, 2023 at 10:38 pm

    This is not a documentary about a treasure hunt. This is a documentary about some very broken people.

  49. 5-Leaf Blaze on August 1, 2023 at 10:41 pm

    It’s still early in the investigation, but it appears Ai, searching the Wayback Machine, could find no evidence of a Jack or Jonathan Stuef prior to 2020. No birth, no graduation and no articles can be found…
