Didn't Fenn admit it was all BS after people started dying from searching dangerous places?

dude was putting a whole lot of faith on anchoring to a handrail that by code only has to support a 200 lb side load built by the lowest government bidder.

No, he said it wasn't in a dangerous place, so stop searching there and that he hid it when he was in his 80s.

Yeah I already searched all the obvious places in Yellowstone so this guy was wasting his time. Back in August I found a little cave that fit all the clues but alas, no treasure.

Christensen said he turned back from the treasure location after seeing possible bear tracks and hearing a loud moan or growl; he claimed a bear might be skipping hibernation due to plentiful food — fish that die after going over the Lower Falls.

Onlookers and park personnel couldn’t believe their eyes.

“He was like a turtle on his back in that heavy snow,” said Gary Fales, owner of Gary Fales Outfitting and Snowmobile Tours in Wapiti, which had rented the sled to Christensen with no knowledge of his plans. “This guy was lucky he didn’t die.”

I went treasure hunting in my canyon once. No gold to be found though corn was in abundance. And that was the day I learned I'm not a strong wiper.
