I can't reveal the prize because it will give away the puzzle. It has a value of about $60 - $80. |

Thanks for the hunt.
We've decrypted a bunch of the coded messages. Haven't decided where it's taking us yet.

forgottenhistoryhunt questions for you if you can answer 1. Is this located in the lower 48 US? 2. Does the image lead to an exact location or a general location for our BOTG?

Today I was reminded of a treasure I went searching for a few years ago. The hunt creator assured me the location was safe and it was not. It was super dangerous. I came across a newspaper article from that same year, about two rescues that had taken place at that very location.
So I just want everyone to know, for my BOTG hunt, you do not need to climb any mountains, scale any cliffs, or navigate any water (oceans, lakes, rivers). No spelunking in caves, no climbing any rocks or trees. The token can be reached by car and a short walk, and once you know where you are going, google maps can give you directions for a safe route if you are unfamiliar with the area :-)
Good luck everyone!
