(Without resulting in unfortunate demises, that is. In the past, we’ve explored the mystery of Forrest Fenn’s Rocky Mountain treasure, we’ve chronicled efforts to locate all of Byron Preiss’s The Secret treasures, and we’ve suggested tactics for cracking Jason Rohrer’s A Game for Someone hunt.īut as intriguing as those hunts are, none of them have spanned more than a century of searching.

There’s nothing quite like a treasure hunt to spark the imagination.
