There's a $2 million treasure hidden somewhere in the Rockies — and at least 4 people have died looking for it

    A treasure estimated to be worth $2 million may be hidden somewhere in the Rocky Mountains.
    Millionaire Forrest Fenn said he hid a chest filled with gold and valuables somewhere in the mountains in 2010.
    He's since provided a number of clues to the treasure's location in a poem.
    At least four people have died searching for the treasure.


The ongoing search for hidden riches in the Rockies has reportedly claimed another life.

Montana station KULR TV reported 53-year-old Jeff Murphy fell to his death while hunting for Forrest Fenn's hidden treasure in Yellowstone over the summer.

Fenn, a millionaire, art dealer, and former fighter pilot, said he hid an assortment of gold and valuables in a bronze chest somewhere in the Rocky Mountains in 2010. The treasure has been estimated to be worth about $2 million.

Fenn said he's given nine clues to the treasure's location, in the form of a poem advising the reader to "begin it where warm waters halt." He's also published two books, "The Thrill of the Chase" and "Too Far to Walk," which include a map featuring New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana.
