I think you are vastly underestimating the size of the rockies. The clues are so vague that there are probably thousands of square miles that match the poem description [1].

- Balgair 10y agoYes, the Rockies are large, I would know, I have a fantastic view of them from my house. But an ill man is who buried the treasure taking 2 trips and the poem does narrow it a fair bit, the search range is 'spaghetti' but not a large amount of area in net total - So says someone that never found it. Also, I kinda doubt it exists to begin with.

- planteen 10y agoWay more than that. The Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mine produces over 200,000 ounces of gold per year. Not to mention countless closed mines that are probably yet to be played out.
