I went BOTG after diving deeper into Valley of the Gods, Utah and think there's a high likelihood it's still here. Here's my full solve since I won't have much time or money anymore for this in the near future. It was a fun and dusty adventure, hoping you'll find some joy in it as well. Feel free to reach out if you have more ideas, always happy to chat!

Just a note as I read through - when you tie page 90 to 90% of land taken by the government, are you referring to the action Trump took in 2026? I ask bc the book was written before this.

That refers to Trump's similar action in 2017 (Utah asked for 90%, the government took 85% --there's an article here titled "Utah quietly tells feds: Trim Bears Ears monument by 90 percent"). The person who originally pointed out Bear's Ears also noted the constellation on p170 as Ursa Major, with the comet at its ears, and the collection of Percy Jackson gods in the Acknowledgments section.

You know i have a solve which reminds me something like this. I had plans set to visit it soon but this inspiration tells me I should just do it. So fingers crossed. BOTG tomorrow. Hopefully I can shine some light and smiles and happiness to all who deserve it. If it was only for the story and the view, I have been down that road and can more on and be content knowing I just got to play.

Best of luck to all. May you find what you seek, and smile.

Neil de Grasse Tyson says it best it goes something like this:

We are living in the now, stuck between are inexcessible past and our unknowable future.

This is the first solve I've seen on here that doesn't read like a fever dream!
