Ten years ago, an art dealer and author hid a treasure chest worth $1 million in the Rocky Mountains, and he included some vague clues on how to find it in his autobiography, called"The Thrill of the Chase".
Thousands of people have tried to find it in the past decade including at least two people who DIED trying and two others who had to be rescued from near-death situations. Well . . . Fenn announced on Sunday, quote, "the search is over." He says someone from "back East" who didn't want to be revealed used the clues from a 24-line poem in Fenn's book to locate the treasure . . . and confirmed he'd found it with a photograph.
The treasure contained gold dust, hundreds of rare coins, gold nuggets and other artifacts.
