The first two stanzas of Forrest Fenn's Poem:
As I have gone alone in there
And with my treasures bold,
I can keep my secret where,
and hint of riches new and old.
Begin it where warm waters halt
And take it in the canyon down,
Not far, but too far to walk.
Put in below the home of Brown.
How far is far? What do you think?
