Is the Blaze made by Forrest and not a natural one? MW Investigates: Read on MW

the blaze can't be seen on google earth. not feasible to remove. could be a mark forrest made on a rock. petroglyph of some sort. probably the omega sign.

Moby Dickens Bookshop interviewer: "Is it possible to locate the treasure chest without ever leaving your computer and Google Earth?"
FF: "No. It isn’t. Did I really say that? <Laughter> Uh, there is not a picture of the treasure chest on Google Earth. Was that your question?"
Interviewer: "Yeah, I think that will suffice."
FF: "Because Google Earth doesn’t go down far enough."

IMO, the blaze cannot be small. Even if it was a 5 foot around boulder, it easily could be defaced. Since Forrest has stated that it isn't feasible to remove the blaze, I have a hunch that the blaze is massive. When reading TTOTC, what word does he type more frequently than others, that is related to the word blaze. It is also sketched twice in the book. I think that is the answer.

He said Google Earth cannot help with the last clue, so maybe people assume this means the blaze.

There is good reason to believe the Blaze is the last clue..... I share thoughts on that here: mysteriouswritings.com/the-blaze-is-the-last-clue-in-forrest-fenns-poem/One is as follows: If we consider these two responses, and the fact Forrest has said he doesn’t intentionally mislead searchers, it seems clear that the last clue is the Blaze: Because whether you look down, or quickly down, the Treasure Chest is there and can be found. Forrest says that happens with the Blaze in the Q on MW, and with the Last Clue in the recent video. The treasure can’t be in two places. There are other quotes which lean towards the Blaze as the last clue too. I think those who don't agree are those with solutions which differ from this Occam razor approach. It would seem the Blaze can't be seen from google earth, If you believe Forrest isn't misleading in any way by his statements.

Define "clue"... then define "hint"...

Although the first clue is definitive from FF, I don’t believe he has ever stated definitively what the last clue is. Please correct me if I’m wrong. To me, this is still speculation. I always thought the blaze was the last clue but recently changed my mind. I now believe the blaze can be seen from a satellite map. Here’s a thought: what if look quickly down is only part of the last clue? Might your quest to cease be a FF word play suggesting face from West to East to look quickly down? That would then be a directional clue. I can’t speak for Forrest but that would certainly make me smile had I authored that.

It's true Forrest hasn't ever said straight out 'The last clue is the Blaze'...and I haven't said he has..... however he has said things about the last clue and also things about the Blaze that certainly suggest they are one and the same.
I'm just asking a question.....please know that is all I'm doing......
I understand we each might answer differently.....

depends if you believe it is that last clue. I do. so yeah he does say that - to me.

Hi Jenny, Until someone finds the treasure, I think we are all just asking questions - sometimes in the form of statements :-) I really do like your site as it provides a great format for our disparate ideas.

When reading TTOTC, what word does he type more frequently than others, that is related to the word blaze. It is also sketched twice in the book. I think that is the answer. I'm of the opposite opinion...I think blaze is the last clue and is very, very localized...Not something large and dramatically eye-catching enough that a person would be drawn to it if they were in the vicinity, like a huge boulder or a waterfall. Those places would make it more likely the treasure had been already found among other things, I think. And 'looking quickly down' once you do have the blaze pegged, seems to imply that you must be in that exact, precise locale to see it.

In a recent interview didn't he say that you tarry scant because you've found the treasure? That's right after the line about the blaze. So if the blaze isn't the last clue, can we not be fairly comfortable that if we find it we are very close to finding the treasure?
Can we be brave and say we are very likely less than 200 feet from the treasure?
