Forrest Fenn was a decorated Air Force pilot, art dealer, and author who lived in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He collected rare artifacts from around the world. After surviving cancer in the late 1980s, he devised a wild plan: hide a treasure chest filled with valuable items and challenge people to find it. Fenn published a book in 2010 titled The Thrill of the Chase. Inside it, he included a mysterious poem. This poem, he said, held the clues to find a hidden treasure somewhere in the Rocky Mountains. It didn’t take long for the hunt to gain attention. People from all over the world traveled to the mountains to try to solve the clues. The treasure was said to be worth up to $5 million, and many were eager to claim it.
