Finally, the person who found the mysterious treasure was revealed after a period of “hiding”.
Not long ago, people were buzzing about a “huge” treasure hidden on a mountain range in America. The search has been going on for many years, and now the identity of the finder has been revealed.
The person who hid this treasure was Forrest Fenn. The person who found the treasure he hid was Jonathan ‘Jack’ Stuef, 32 years old – a medical school student in Michigan.
The treasure that Forrest Fenn hid was a chest worth up to $3 million. He once described the inside as containing gold, precious stones…
Stuef spent 2 years looking for the treasure. Not only Stuef, but more than 350,000 people ventured to find the treasure and at least 5 people died.
The lucky person who found the treasure refused to reveal how he found it, but the 32-year-old man said he did not use GPS or any other technological tools.
His son Forrest Fenn revealed that Jack Stuef found the treasure on June 6, 2020, containing gold nuggets, gems, and objects crafted from pre-Columbian times.
Mr. Forrest Fenn is a millionaire. This tycoon once worked in the US Air Force. Since retiring, he has run the Arrowsmith-Fenn art gallery. Each year this gallery can earn 6 million USD.
Before the treasure was hidden somewhere in the Rocky Mountains, he was diagnosed with terminal cancer in 1988.
He kept the treasure chest for everyone to find.
He then recovered and wrote his memoirs. He mentioned clues about this mysterious treasure in verses in the memoir written by Forrest Fenn.
Mr. Forrest Fenn passed away in September 2020, at the age of 90.
Once found, the treasure is being stored in a vault in New Mexico for safety
