To our knowledge, YES, it has found!  Our bet, that it was found some time ago, and happy finder is not in a hurry to demonstrate his/her new wealth. 1st argument: If I knew I missed 200-500', I would return next season and finish the deal. The 2nd evidence (as I hope), I has sent to Mr.Forrest Fenn, and it would be great if he will read my email. |

To our "knowledge"  What knowlege is that? Imagination is more important than knowlege. There is another thread concerning this link: m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=KKAcAA8FpOsMr. Fenn has proven time and time again that he has the utmost integrity. If you don't think that matters and you think the chest has been found, perhaps you should reevaluate your level of knowlege. I am sure there is no way for you to know for sure anything. Faith. You have to trust the chest is still there. Reread TTOTC and reread the poem. |

The "knowledge" of FF is based on the hope that finder would let him know that he/she had solved the riddle. As I understand, finder prefers to keep low profile.
During last year I and my wife, made 2 intercontinental trips to the Rockies, and spent about $10,000. And the adventures worth it.
But if someone wants to make investment in treasure chase on last saving, I doubt it would be good idea.

To our knowledge, YES, it has found! :-[ Our bet, that it was found some time ago, and happy finder is not in a hurry to demonstrate his/her new wealth. 1st argument: If I knew I missed 200-500', I would return next season and finish the deal. The 2nd evidence (as I hope), I has sent to Mr.Forrest Fenn, and it would be great if he will read my email. If ff didn't respond to your email showing the site where you thought the chest was before someone else found it, it's because you were at the wrong spot. The people who were within 200 and 500' didn't know they were that close, so "If I knew I missed" doesn't hold any water. The chest is still out there, and until ff announces otherwise, it's still up for grabs. |

ALL the people who emailed to FF their findings and read about 200-500' went over their route, and ONE found the chest.

Surely that wouldn't compromise the "finder's" anonymity. I have no proof, but I think that chance that TC has not found is less then 50%. Don't you think your hope relies only on "knowledge" of Mr.FF? |

I think Ff has a way of knowing if it has been found, he does not need to rely on the searcher to tell him. IMO.

He updates the community from time to time. He has said he will know but will not reveal how he will know. But as you are saying it is found, until Ff says it, don't buy it. |

Nope, has not been found.
Unless your name is Forrest Fenn, do not perpetuate silly rumors. The chest is there until Forrest (or his estate when he passes) says it isn't. Nice troll attempt though

No wise man whould host a huge treasure hunt and risk his entire estate on a lawsuit if the chest was found 3 weeks later and over the past 7 years one guy has died and tens if not hundreds of thousands were spent on searches and rescuses over that time. |

The 2nd evidence (as I hope), I has sent to Mr.Forrest Fenn, and it would be great if he will read my email. Klipper, This topic has been discussed many times and in many ways. The searcher/s that were the closest do not know that they were the ones that were that close, had they have known that they were or had been individually tipped off that they were that close this may have been over a few years ago, but Forrest was wise enough not to tip those specific searchers off. There has also been much speculation that the 500ft then the 200ft mentions may have been the same searcher/s one (500ft) being distance as the crow flies and the other (200ft) possibly elevation, but both the same point in space, if you can understand that. I personally do not believe that there is some electronic device that allows Forrest to track the chest and know for certain that it has in fact been moved. I firmly believe that Forrest understands human nature well enough to have confidence in one that is wise enough to locate and recover the chest, that they will in turn then notify him that it had in fact been found. Now whether that finder reveals where they found it or who they are is completely dependent upon them wanting to, and Forrest at that point will be more of a bystander than the central focus of the chase.

Based on Fenn recent change in language, lack of an annual update, and comments confirming short emails contained key word this past year. It is quite possible the poem has been solved but not likely the chest has been removed. Sure it is possible to remove it under the cloak of darkness or thwart any surveillance device if you believe they are employed, but one has to consider Mr. Fenn is pretty crafty with how he knows and he hinted at that at the Moby Dickens interview. If you were Mr. Fenn and you really wanted to know if the chest was retrieved how would you ensure it? He hinted about an IOU in the chest, perhaps there is something in there that guarantees the finder will come forward. Just use your imagination to figure out what that could be.

What knowlege is that? Imagination is more important than knowlege.
