In 1988, at age fifty-eight, the eccentric millionaire and former art gallery owner, Forrest Fenn was diagnosed with kidney cancer and given a twenty percent chance to live three years. Determined not to simply go away after reluctantly accepting his fate, he carefully hatched a scheme to take his treasure and head out into the mountains north of Santa Fe to die. Against all odds, he managed to defeat the cancer and at eighty years of age he kept his promise, hid the treasure and wrote a poem describing the mystical location.
Shot down twice, this retired Vietnam War fighter pilot and self taught archeologist has learned one of life’s most important lessons; his history and special secrets are contained within the 850 year old treasure chest. He has boldly dared anyone to take up his challenge to go out and find the treasure chest.
