Forrest Fenn has put out a statement that his treasure was indeed in Wyoming. How many of you all got it right for the thrill of the chase?
Statement by Forrest Fenn on June 6, 2020:
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.
So the search is over. Look for more information and photos in the coming days. f
Statement by Forrest Fenn on June 16, 2020:
The treasure chest was found by a man I did not know and had not communicated with since 2018.
The finder wants me to remain silent and I always said the finder gets to make those two calls. Who and where. f
Statement by Forrest Fenn on July 22,2020:
Many of the searchers for my treasure had solves that seemed to neatly fit the clues in my poem. Then when the finder found and retrieved the treasure, other searchers wondered how close they had been to the right spot. Because I promised the finder I would not reveal who found it or where, I have remained mostly silent.
However, the finder understands how important some closure is for many searchers, so today he agreed that we should reveal that the treasure was found in Wyoming. Until he found the treasure, the treasure had not moved in the 10 years since I left it there on the ground, and walked away.
Perhaps today’s announcement will bring some closure to those whose solves were in New Mexico, Colorado, or Montana.
To all of those who did not find the treasure, we hope that you got some enjoyment from the chase. f
