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 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.

    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.

    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.

    Really? We need an old todger like that telling us to get out and about…?

    the treasure is spiritual, yo should stop the quest.

  8. Ralph Taylor on January 17, 2023 at 8:34 am

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

    Promoting this scam is not wise.

  12. Y Not? on January 17, 2023 at 8:40 am

    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

  13. Brian Hudson on January 17, 2023 at 8:40 am

    Bunch of whiners you didn’t find it you don’t get the info of where it was

    Plot twist. If someone legally owns something and you find it, it doesn’t belong to you. You are legally obligated to either return it or turn it over to the authorities that they might return it. I wonder if there wasn’t a document transferring legal ownership to the bearer but that document included a demand to keep the location a secret. Well played Mr. Forest, well played.

    What absolute losers!

  25. Phinyx on January 17, 2023 at 8:50 am

    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.

  26. Smokin Joe on January 17, 2023 at 8:50 am

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

    This treasure hunt was definitely not on the up and up. A lot of shady characters seem to be pushing things that don’t make sense. Certainly is looking like fraud to me.

  29. Tim Miller on January 17, 2023 at 8:52 am

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

  30. Smokin Joe on January 17, 2023 at 8:55 am

    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.

    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.

    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…

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

    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!

    Lighter No.2. So sick of this I’m burning everything I have connected with The golden owl and The thrill of the chase.

  48. In My Opinion on January 17, 2023 at 9:11 am

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

    I wouldnt be surprised if in a few years Jack writes a book and or has a movie made about his endeavor to find this treasure. In which he may or may not disclose the location. Lol
