In just trying to brainstorm what could possibly be a 4” x 4” distinct plot of land, the only things I can come up with are: a sidewalk plaque a burial plot marker
i like a previous poster’s idea of the Macy’s Thanksgiving parade. A few years ago they put a sidewalk marker where it starts and it does have a depiction of a float with a pointy head. But no feathers and it’s about 4x4 feet, not inches.
I also tried to find a really small grave marker, like in a pet cemetery. But nothing.

. Because “precise” was in the wording ...

Interesting. I like the arrow. So we just have to find a specific marker with an arrow that relates to "a realized bourbon red."

I just looked at the benchmarks at Franklin County Airport, the only benchmarks I could connect with "fly". But none have arrows on them. Changing subject abruptly, 4 by 4 inches is a small plot but by no means the smallest available. Gotohellmi.com offers you the chance to buy one square inch of Hell, MI for $10.

4x4 plot

I think it's interesting that he said specifically a 4x4 plot of land. Wouldn't a 4"x4" plot of land just be gps coordinates to the 6th decimal, not a thing? Not that there couldn't be a thing on that plot, but I believe he's looking for gps coordinates, not an object.

I'm not working on this so I don't know the exact wording of the clue. Could 4x4 plot of land be a place where 4-wheel drive vehicles do their thing?

Is There some reason that we should be looking to the 6Th decimal place specifically? Why not the fifth or the seventh decimal place? (recalling that one of the clues was “the fifth”.) goldhunter, I believe that the text surrounding the clue include the word inches in the 4 x 4 comment.

GPS coodinates to the 7th decimal is about a half and inch, used for military operations, and the 5th decimal only narrows it down to about 3ft squared. I think emphasis on "the fifth" is merely desperately trying to get us to focus on "realized", the 5th word. In addition, the GPS coodinates used to pinpoint just about anything on google maps is given to the 6th decimal place. Just a theory but it seems terribly convenient.

Its four inches by four inches. From Pete's BTB website "It leads to an actual plot of land somewhere in the United States that is four inches by four inches. It is very small. But very precise."

Thanks for the info. I'd like to work on this but I'm fasting hunts until I can get some resolution on my other hunts.

I’m so psyched. I just sent in my guess, fingers crossed! I reached my guess by focusing on “flies” and a 4x4 area. Even if I’m wrong, it was fun to try.

I havent been able to find a way to pull reliable coordinates from the original riddle. when i hear “fifth”, it brings to mind a bottle of whiskey. For a case of Buffalo Trace, what is the footprint of one of the bottles? Seems like it should be about 4x4 inches? (Maybe thats a bit too big). Could there be a connection? Does the Buffalo Trace trail have a marker? Is there a famous buffalo footprint somewhere?

. Is Pete being tricky with the definition of “plot”
4 x 4 inch Plot of land
A 4x4 map / graph of land found somewhere ?
