The treasure chest is no longer below the home of Brown, though it has not been claimed. The treasure and the treasures inside the chest are all with Jerry Zacuto & Family but they are waiting for me to claim the treasure chest. So let it be known now to all, that I take claim of the treasure chest. Thank you Jerry Zacuto & Family in Florida. I'm out here in CA. Maybe I will move out to Florida sometime, so I can be an 'Easterner' too.
Sometimes in life we all have to go through some insanity but in the end it's worth it to reach your 'fantasy'
I don't always Claim a treasure chest but when I do, I claim Jerry's
Keep searching my friends:-)
Now that this word game is finally done, I can use my real name.
Best wishes...

Thank you Forrest for the treasure but I don't have time to drive to your house to "claim it" and pick it up because I have much bigger project going on at the moment. Please feel free to keep the bracelet, the chest and all the goodies inside the chest. Also I would like to see you donate as much as you want to the Smithsonian. Or you could re-hide it if you want. Thanks for the thrill of the chase, it was quite fun.
haven't seen a thread on this.... Anyone interested in it? I've done some cursory research and would like to share. The distance precludes me from searching, but would like to help.
I am holding a Fennboree in May for people who are actively seeking the Fenn treasure. The web site is The Forrest Fenn Treasure Seeker's Jamboree: Fennboree!
I was thinking of adding the treasure location to my Google Map of the Fennboree camp site, but that would be.... silly.
OK ..... I'll tell you exactly where I know it is.....AND...... tell you all how I have deciphered the poem. Why? because I KNOW you or nobody else will go get it when I explain it all.........
Was out crusing the great broadband highway in the sky, doing a little reconnoitering.
Just when I thought this thrill chase game could not get any more squrrley. Seems that Fenn is
indicating to some of his trusted deciples that he (Fenn) received an email from a man with the poem "solve". Sounds good. But now interpret this if you will.
Exerpted from a posting by The Wolf at Chase Chat 2/2014 (A Fenn supported site):
"Here is the problem: I sent FF my first solution in Dec and I said I thought he could do better and
I hinted to the second which I have since solved and passed on in Jan. So you are probably wondering why I don't just go out and search? Well that is a very good question. Think of it this way. I have a gun and one bullet and a very angry bear is charging at me. Do I shoot now and risk missing and then life is over forever or do I wait until I see the whites of his eyes and shoot? The second option is what I have chosen ... it takes tremendous guts but the probability of success is much higher. I really do not want life to end - lol."
"So is FF trying to light a fire under my butt through this latest press release? Perhaps, but it
does not change anything other than confirm that I am on the right track. FF says I will move with
conviction; so as long as I have 2 and searching for the illusive third location, I will sit tight.
If I do move, I will not be coming back empty handed. One bullet - one chance - make it count!"

Now this from same site by same poster in June of 2013.
"Rick,To me the mystical connection is how close Forrest's life, experiences and motivations are
similar to mine. To me it is the thrill of the chase not the quarry (although that would be a nice
bonus) that motivates me. To be the one to actually solve the poem is a very satisfying feeling and
to know you are the only one to accomplish this feat amongst so many talented searchers (such as yourself) is a great feeling. To then retrieve the trove and end the mystery would be anticlimactic, unless there is a way to keep the fun going..."

Now my observations (BTDT2)
Channeling "Hotel California" by The Eagles
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (Such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
They livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)
Bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said "We are all just prisoners here, of our own device"
And in the master's chambers,
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
"Relax, " said the night man,
"We are programmed to receive.
You can check-out any time you like,
But you can never leave! "
[Some of my solutions were deleted on chase chat, I'll post it here later, I cannot add pics here from the iPad it seems
