I am sure at least some here have heard of the Forrest Fenn gold/jewels treasure in the Rocky Mountains.

If it was ever found, do you think they told anyone?

 

[RVTravel]

Some won't tell for an attempt at not paying taxes on it.

What I'm saying it was found decades ago. When the trail was fresh.

Hans, "How can we attract people to our little hamlet?"
Franz, "Lets tell them there's a treasure just over there."
Hans, "Ya, und we mix a little history into the story."
Franz, "Ya Ya, und we have some maps too."
Hans, "Ya, und we can put the gift shop over there."
Franz, "Ya, und Starbucks over there, und a Casino over there."

Now all the vandwellers will be digging holes in the ground which will lead to more areas closed for camping.

I'd say it's probably been found and not reported sounds like a tourist trap but if I'm ever up there I'll get out my metal detector hey who knows I might get lucky and find a gold coin.
