I think this confirms the nine clues start with WWWH, and although the first stanza might hold hints to or for the clues, it is not part of the 'MAP' so to say....

He also says, THAT LOCATION, so seems he is confirming once again that WWWH=LOCATION.

Then I will look at the big picture of a trail map on a billboard at the NPS land.Now wwwh just could be me looking at the billboard at a halt.This is a location the NPS.Now a good map will Give me my elevation I need when I go down in the canyon.Hmmm what did leave out. |

This is now the second time Mr. Fenn has explicitly stated ONLY WWWH is the first clue. At one time many a year ago I considered the 9 sentences were the 9 clues. I quickly dropped that flawed logic once it was confirmed but some still insist it is a possibility. He is rarely this clear about things, but for argument sake, if the second sentence is the first clue, then why has he now twice stated that it is only WWWH and and not the whole sentence is the first clue?
If someone can prove this without rationalization I am all ears.

Mike some hang on to 9 sentences are the nine clues because FF said most of the words are useful (paraphrase). FF has now confirmed twice that only WWWH is the first clue, not BIWWWHATIITCD (the whole sentence). Thus if sentence 2 is not the first clue, then the 1st stanza cannot be the 9th clue like some who speculate the poem wraps around (as per the TS ELIOT poem). I believe TS Eliot beginning/end relationship, but it is not possible for the first stanza to be the 9th clue, especially since FF said there is no switching back in the poem. |

This can help us count the other clues. But we should still evaluate our thoughts. For example, "If you've been wise and found the blaze." One clue (or two) in past tense. And what order or clue number is the sentence, or phrase? By the way, I think the blaze is in the book (uh oh, here comes an avalanche). I think it's best to keep an open mind about the chase. |

"WHERE."is in a secret location "WHERE.is in the wwh it is not in a secret location if the little girl a cross the great plains of water can solve it then wwwh is in the open. But are we the ww because ff revers to "YOU." the first clue is Begin it who's going to begin it "YOU." you could be the ww now what brings me to a halt for me to take the canyon down. A billboard with the big picture on it of the NPS brings many ww to a halt to see "Where." they are .IMO. this was put in a deferent way already been said. |

Initials of "WWWH" at the beginning of a stanza don't necessarily indicate this is the first place in the poem where someone should....."begin it." - The FIRST STANZA could actually provide the correct description of WWWH, IMO.
FF hasn't established clarification in the statement he's made.. either way.

Unless FF offers to distinguish exactly what he meant; only time can determine the first place in the poem where one should have actually began/ started "it."
IMO.

All,
This new Featured Q & A does not, in my opinion, disprove the nine sentence could be the nine clues theory. And in reality who cares if one thinks there are nine, twenty, or even 166 clues in the poem, if one can simply understand it completely and circumstance themselves to the treasure. So the question then becomes: why did he even mention nine clues?
Again a few are overly concerned with attempting to prove others are wrong or their logic is flawed, and that is expensive folly, as nobody is wrong until one is right.
Have a nice day all.
