Netflix Doc Highlights Fenn's Rocky Mountains Treasure Hunt

Netflix's docuseries, 'Gold & Greed: The Hunt for Fenn's Treasure,' chronicles the decade-long quest for a hidden treasure chest worth over $1 million, initially buried by art dealer Forrest Fenn in the Rocky Mountains in 2010. The treasure hunt was spurred by a cryptic 24-line poem in Fenn's memoir, leading many to abandon their jobs and even costing some their lives. The treasure was eventually found by Jonathan 'Jack' Stuef in 2020, but the exact location remains undisclosed. Following in Fenn's footsteps, treasure hunter Justin Posey has hinted at a new treasure hunt with clues possibly embedded within the series itself. The documentary has captivated audiences, becoming one of Netflix's most-watched programs in the UK, while also delving into its darker consequences, including multiple fatalities and personal losses.
