How a perilous 10-year ‘treasure hunt’ claimed five lives – after man who thought he was dying from cancer buried chest with ‘$1M of gold’ in the Rocky Mountains… leaving only a cryptic poem as the clue
In a shocking and unprecedented turn of events, a treasure hunt that spanned an astonishing decade has come to a close, but not without claiming the lives of five people. The man behind the mystery is none other than James Reavis, who had initially buried a chest containing $1 million in gold in the Rocky Mountains.
Reavis, who was convinced he was dying from cancer at the time, made the bold move to bury the treasure and leave behind only a cryptic poem as the clue. But what unfolded next would be nothing short of extraordinary – or should we say, deadly.
For an entire decade, treasure hunters and enthusiasts flocked to the Rocky Mountains in a desperate bid to find the buried riches. And while some were successful, many others did not make it back alive.
