Get all the highlights of the week right here in one spot! I follow closely the many treasure hunts—so you don’t have to (or don’t have time to!).
(Join discussions on the MW Facebook Group or Discord - lots being shared- don’t miss out!)
I posted the following on the MW Discord and Facebook Group yesterday.
Exciting news! For those who searched for the Forrest Fenn chest – you may be familiar with the ‘Featured Questions’ I did with Forrest. I would gather questions from the community and send them to Forrest to answer. I would share them for all to enjoy.
These questions were not always ‘for clues’ – but also to get to learn more about Forrest himself. Which does in turn help with the hunt.
I chatted with Justin – and will begin something similar! However – ONLY ONE EACH MONTH.
So a new segment ‘Featured Question with Justin’ (once a month) will begin soon on MW.
What do you want to ask?
This is the plan for July’s Question. I may change this for August because of the amount of Questions I’m receiving. (BTW - there are lots of awesome questions!)
For July I will draw a random Question from the lot - and send it to Justin - so he can answer. I’ll share it for all to enjoy on the MW Website’s Page - of which Justin has a link to on his website already via previous Six Questions. (Possibly share there too)
I will draw from questions for July here soon. You can ask them on the MW Discord, Facebook, or comment below.
Remember this is a series - next month there will be another Q/A! If you weren’t able to submit a question for this month or your question doesn’t get asked this time - there’s the next one.
I plan to post the Q/A on the last day of each month.
Last week I shared thoughts why searchers are looking for the Pokémon Box in Arkansas. … BUT…. Missouri has some things going for it too!
I like keeping all options open - considering multiple ideas for clues - and then weighing them. Which clues - if any - seem definite? Which clues are more a stretch? And so on… This for all hunts.
You can watch the video on 5 reasons for Missouri - or read the quick overview below - which has now been added to the MW Website page on TTI. (I’m consistently updating the pages with new ideas/thoughts on clues.)
5 Reasons for Missouri for the Pokémon Box
Two Charizard cards shown in the beginning of the chapter - pokedex #6 - two hint to 66 - Route 66 birthplace is Springfield, Missouri
Mewtwo hidden in end photo. This Pokémon found in a cave. Missouri nicknamed as the ‘cave state’.
Missouri is also nicknamed the ‘show me state’. In the story Jon SHOWS Froakie and the Greninja items from the treasure. Is this why?
Another nickname for Missouri is ‘Gateway to the West’. Mention of Portland, Maine - could be a hint to PORT LAND - portal and doors seem hinted to in text. Is this the connection?
Circular route seems a hint. Circle has END and BEGINNING together. With MewtwO hidden at the end - maybe MO (end and beginning of name) is a hint. MO being the state abbreviation for Missouri
ALL 3 FOUND! That was like a domino effect. After the Midwest proxy was found - the proxies in New England and the Northeast - soon followed.
The thousands in treasure/cash claimed!
Veil (Jeff and Paul) will be revealing clues and chatting with the winners on a live show here: Project Harvest Reveal!
Still 3 to go! of 12. Each with a treasure value of $1000 cash! Clues within a book - available on Amazon - more information on how past hunts solved in previous newsletter.
The World’s Biggest Marble Hunt kicked off July 23! Treasure chests filled with artisan glass marbles and other surprises are being hidden across the United States (and other locations).
To see if there’s a hunt near you, visit the event’s Facebook page and search by your state, county, or the hider’s name. You can also check the website’s Treasure Chests section for a list of all registered chests and their general hiding locations.
Some listings include specific locations, while others are marked only as “Secret Location” or simply “USA,” leaving a little extra mystery for those who enjoy a bit of sleuthing before the hunt even begins.
While hosted by Cris Dotson of The Hope Chest Treasure Hunt - this is an event for ALL Treasure Hunters!
The Hope Chest hoe down invites anyone who loves puzzle hunts. MW will be there and many others. I hope you join us! It’s going to be lots of fun!
Treasures are out there to find and MW is here to help! Each week, I share news, insights, and discoveries on treasure hunts! Thank you for being part of this community. Treasure the Adventures!
