Is anyone working on this one or in the Ohio area? I think I have a good idea on this one. I'm working on it; haven't really had the chance to look into as much as I would've liked. Thought about going BOTG this weekend after looking for another cache, I'm about two hours north of East Fork SP. Feel free to message me if you'd like me to look for you.

Update from Will:
Hi everyone it’s been almost two weeks since I buried the Treasure. I just wanted to give a follow up on a question that I received concerning the hidden treasure here at East Fork Lake in Ohio. Yes it is still out there! I checked on the treasure under the cover of darkness over the weekend and it’s still intact in the strategic location I buried it in.The treasure is made up from items taken from my artifact room and items donated specifically for this fall hunt. Approximately $700 value. There is a trigger item/ instructions inside the container that I’m confident the finder will contact me and let me know that the treasure has been found. So rest assure I will know if the hidden treasure is located/ recovered and I will notify everyone right away. The treasure map is made up of a tribute to the late Forrest Fenn and poem written by me, printed on yellow paper “ For All To Seek”. There are 9 clues within the poem verses. Good luck on your adventure. Always be willing to adjust your solve a little bit. For information on this hunt and other hunts going on “ Coast to Coast “ visit - TheChaseLegacy.com.Thanks- Will

Solution posted by Will:
Ok here is the reveal / solve to Will’s Fall Treasure Hunt. It’s been crazy busy at work so I haven’t had a chance to post it yet. I would like to thank everyone that participated in the hunt. My best guess is that around 50 people were looking for this Treasure at one time or another. I picked the spot for the hidden treasure directly from the trail map. If you looked the trail map over closely of East Fork Lake region in Ohio you would see the crossing of paths in the shape of an X. The first line on the treasure map poem says you will need a treasure map and a trail guide. I mentioned spot 3 times in the poem. I even said if you find the right spot , it’s 6” down. The area that the treasure was buried in was dug up by many people, but I don’t think anyone went the full 6” except for the finders Matt & Susan Winkle and kids. I would like to say one thing-The tires just off to the side of the trail near where the treasure was buried were there already- not part of the map or clues, etc. The round mentioned in the poem was a round rock in the center of the cross trail( see picture). Part of the clues to guide you were - no camping needed, Park in the lot, I mentioned bridled and trailhead, and make a pit stop. All of these clues were in the lot to get started with your hike. I’ll show pictures to support the start and the X needed to recover the container. Everyone did a great job breaking down the poem. Congratulations to all the hunters. You all are treasure hunters in my eyes, but “there could be only one “. Yes I’m going to put another treasure at East Fork Lake region in a week or two. So stay tuned to Will’s Treasure Hunt for more details. Thanks-Will.

Thanks for sharing and Congratulations to the finders! I am happy to say that I was spot on with my breakdown, but due to work/life, could not get out to Ohio this time. I’m a newbie to treasure hunting and it feels good to know I was on the right “path” for once. Can’t wait for the next hunt!
