I confess I have had a few wild rabbit holes. Like wondering if the chase was connected to the Kennedy assassination. After all Jackie did appear in the book and Forrest car was called the bullet. Ok, that is thin logic but that is how rabbit holes often start. I have let my imagination get away from me at times. What is your craziest theory? Judgement free zone - we have all had at least one if we have been at this a while. Who knows - maybe your rabbit hole will spur someones imagination.

Mine was that the treasure isn't in one of the four states we think.
The way Forrest talks in riddles a state of mind or in a state that one of the states represent.
Like Colorado is the colorful state = the treasure is very much in a colorful state with all the colors in the chest.
Only thinking about that puts me in a state of dismay

I am not convinced that it is in the 4 states. I think there are credible ways to think that. For example he named two states it isn't in. What if it was on the border of those two states? In that way it would be in both. Possible? Yes. Likely? No. |

(Forrest Fenn's hidden treasure is somewhere to be found within the highlighted region of the Rocky mountains on this map) I believe that but why are a few little places lit-up not in the 4 states? Something to ponder maybe. |

What is your craziest theory Home of Brown is a bear den that a brown bear lives in that Forest trained. He understands English and the treasure is in his den. To get it, you must recite the poem with as much poetic flair as you can muster, and if he gives you the thumbs up, you get the treasure.  |

Something to ponder maybe. He also said people will be surprised to hear the location once exposed. Forrest had a fondness for fouredge books. You could only see the image by angling the edges of the book. What if the "map" has to be looked at in a different way, not the traditional way? What if that creates a completely different view? How might that be? In searching for Lewis and Clark they wisely wad up and burn their map. Is this a clue in how to view this map? I don't know. But I do think looking at this map the way it appears we should is dangerous when dealing with the master of misdirection. |

I may need to fact check the whole bears have thumbs things though. |
