Forrest Fenn Releases Clue 13 - This is Big

This is the biggest clue released by Forrest Fenn to date! The past three clues related to specific locations to avoid like graveyards and structures. This clue wipes out TWO STATES!

Forrest Fenn's Treasure Clue 13:
"The Treasure is NOT in Utah or Idaho."

Well hell...I live in Utah and I had many more places to hunt. In a live interview on the Today show he would not exclude any other states, but my sense is that it's in New Mexico. He's stated several times now that people have been within 500 feet of the treasure.

Forrest said originally his purpose was to get people out into the woods exploring and adventuring. That his interest was not in the treasure being found but the adventures gained in the hunt. Unfortunately, this clue likely will end the hunt for hundreds...maybe thousands who can't afford the time or expense of traveling out of state to look for the treasure.

Forrest may simply want to see his treasure found before he dies. Or this may be about promoting his current home state of New Mexico. Most of the printing proceeds from this book go to supporting businesses in his home town.

What ever the reasoning, I'm out...well except when I'm in Montana. Forrest spent a lot of time there and had a great love for the Yellowstone area...probably no there though.

Good hunting treasure hounds!
