I think that the home of Brown is within eyesight of the chests location, I also believe the the home of Brown has been cleverly disguised and described in TTOTC before FF and Donny made there search for Lewis and Clark

Are there any quotes by Forrest which might contradict the home of Brown to be the location of the treasure?

It's sposed to be balow the home of brown the poem says Yes, but that could just be a clue that you go 'up' to it (and not know it at that point of the poem). It would link with the line 'There'll be no paddle up your creek'...as you go up.......hmmmm..... maybe it is a creek with brown trout...

From the playboy interview on Sacha and Jason's site, Forrest says.....
"But There’s one important thing that no one has thought about. On all the blogs nobody has thought about it. And if they had thought about that, they might have found the treasure . And I’m very careful to not to tell anybody what that thing is."
It could be about the 'home of Brown'..... he is very careful in talking about that in Q/A's..... it could be the 'story'.....

At 48:00 thru 48:44 he gives a clue what dictionary he used for the words in the poem. Google gives the exact answer Forrest gave. If said What does the word several mean?

I've put together a good one that puts the chest on a border of some public and private with ties to FF. I used the book and the poem. The it in the poem is the book and the hints are there when following the poems directions but it was a lot of back and forth not deliberately placed. I have only one problem, I can't be certain, not sure but think he said the treasure is there waiting for the one that knows for sure. I can't find the sure. I could be confident but even the book has it's own riddle and mystery.

hints aren't deliberately placed but scattered throughout

Forrest, you have stated that several searchers correctly identified the first two clues in your poem. Could you tell us how many searchers to your knowledge have correctly identified the first clue correctly? Thanks. ~49 Dollars No 49, I cannot tell you how many searchers have identified the first clue correctly, but certainly more than several. I cannot imagine anyone finding the treasure without first identifying the starting point, although many seem to be preoccupied with later clues. To me that’s just expensive folly. f mysteriouswritings.com/featured-question-with-forrest-first-clue/

If those who had solved the first two clues are able to get within 500 feet, and even 200 feet, of the treasure chest, then it would seem the home of Brown is within that distance too.

Hi Jenny: it's not hard to construct situations where that wouldn't be the case, and Forrest may even hint at why on the back side of the map in TFTW:
"I warned that the path would not be direct for those who had no certainty of the location beforehand, but sure for the one who did."
It's not necessarily true that the dependent clause following the comma is exclusive of the independent clause preceding it. The path may not be direct for anyone: including those with certainty of the location. Rocky Mountain geography can force indirect paths, and when paths are indirect, line-of-sight distances may not always be decreasing as you work your way through the clues.

Hi zaphod73491 Can I ask you a question? How do you see the poem? Is it a precise recipe that from the beginning to the end using all the ingredients results in a unmistakable final product? And this product walks a searcher within 12' and still would 1000 years from now with no problems and especially drafted to hold no guessing involved?
