Solve this poem and find a real life treasure of gold????
[link to www.npr.org]

Long story short: Eccentric and wealthy guy hides millions of dollars worth of gold somewhere in the Rockies and left clues in the form of a poem. So far, nobody has been able to find it. We have some pretty brilliant minds on GLP, can someone crack the code???

I guess that he said in one interview that it isn't actually in too difficult of a location to access and will be somewhere that even an 80 year old man could get to.

I read somewhere that the treasure has still not been found and the closest that treasure hunters have came was within 200 feet.

I'll look for the link and post it.

Here is one Stanza



Begin it where warm waters halt

And take it in the canyon down,

Not far, but too far to walk.

Put in below the home of Brown.

Reminds me of this:

There are grammatical issues with the lines of the stanza detailing where the treasure is. It's a key.

He never claimed it was worth millions or even 1 million. Also I think the entire thing is a hoax. The guy is trolling you all. A pretty good scam if you think about it. Buy my books and you can find a treasure. Lol One born every minute!

Actually pretty simple to solve...


The treasure is around one of the 45 dams located within the Rockies.

Not only is it near a damn, but it is actually under water.

When he refers to "take it", he means some sort of water craft. A boat, kayak, so be it.

"Brown" refers to a specific fish. A brown trout. The chest is under the trout. Under the trout would be in the bed of a river.

Re: Solve this poem and find a real life treasure of gold????
This is the poorest attempt to promote a book that I have ever seen. But lets indulge this poor old dude in his fantasy.

The poem reads:

"Begin it where warm waters halt

And take it in the canyon down,

Not far, but too far to walk.

Put in below the home of Brown."


This is not a poem, these are instructions of where to go. Walk down to the Canyon and dig it up. There's probably nothing there. So don't waste your time wondering what the brown spot is.
