The first two stanzas of Forrest Fenn's Poem are:
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 many people feel WARM is one of the key words to understand? Seems the meaning Forrest applied to it is crucial to solving the poem. Do you feel Forrest's definition is one of the following?
