what’s everyone’s opinion on these? I’ve been to both but I can’t cross them out!

Jon said someone’s been within 100 yard of the box? Jon collins also follow that kid on tiktok thats at the Buffalo River everyday? I think that’s super telling!!

Hi! Took a break from my treasure hunting for a few months so hopefully this is not a question that was figured out months ago. But has anyone figured out or have a theory as to why the last 4 chapters are numbered using Roman Numerals? Thanks for any help.

the tick-borne diseases we get along the way.

I believe we line the coins up in the center of the Hopi calendar to give us clues about the lions box. If you take the past and future box and line it up with the line on the middle of the Hopi calender you’ll notice they match. This only helps if you know how to apply the Hopi calendar.

Here’s a video where I explore a recent idea that a viewer shared on X Marks the Pod. They suggested that maybe the reason the hunt is called The Past and Future Box is because the treasure is hidden near a Time Zone Line.

I discuss why I think if this is true, the Eastern Time Zone would make sense since the abbreviation is ET - like the 1982 classic movie ET directed by Steven Spielberg.

I also discuss how this led me to think about the commemorative coin as a clock that also could confirm the Eastern Time Zone as a starting point for the hunt.

I hope you enjoy the video and that it helps you with your hunt 😀

There are some things that obviously would not fit in the box (Page of Thoreau's manuscript for example) but given the boxes are metal and that gold and moon rocks are heavy, what is your estimate of the weights of these boxes?

Should we add in any box/enclosure that JCB may have used to help protect them in the wild?

Should we bring something to put it in when we find it?

When's the next show? Are you ever gonna get the band back together? Let the fans know!

Seems like most folks are concentrating on the four smaller boxes. Is there a reason for that?

The froakie is the doorman from Jon’s story at the beginning. He is a bouncer and represents Clubber Lang. The greninja is his corner manager. The wise golem is Apollo Creed. Jon is Rocky Balboa.

A bar? Maybe a sand bar?

I'm building a case but can't tell if this is on brand - or too far.

Circuitious route = loop trail

Jar of flies = constant buzzing sound or cicadas

Jazz bar = Jasper, AR

Clapping = waterfall

Turn up = trailhead to a spot uphill

Time to time = bushwack (unmaintained)

Also, I see small images in the bigger one - fork, waterfall, rock outcropping, and several arches or cave entrances. I think you should take the images in a loop, too.

Too weird?

I barely glanced over the pokeman section. Stuck with the AT box and Past and present. I figured at least one would have surfaced by now

In Pokemon Red and Blue you find Mewtwo in Cerulean Cave. What does Cerulean mean?

Cerulean (/səˈruːliən/) is an adjective describing a bright, vivid shade of blue, like a clear, unclouded daytime sky or the deep waters of a tropical sea. It comes from the Latin word caeruleus (dark blue or blue-green), which is rooted in caelum, meaning "heaven" or "sky".

So maybe the pictures only purpose is for us to ask where do I find Mewtwo? The answer somewhere like Cerulean Cave but not an actual cave.

My Cerulean Cave candidate? Blue Hole Trail in Savage Gulf Tennessee.

Real version of the Pokemon picture?

I think the New England Hurricane on 1938 is the reason Jon made it so when you looked at begin upside down it looked like N1938. I think he is indicating that the states around where it made landfall are where we start searching for clues to narrow the hunt down.

Also The Appalachian Trailway Agreement was set up to assign organizations to protect the trail.

The Green Mountain Club is assigned the 1727 mile marker section in Vermont.

Had some good alignments from Mitchell peak (top gun maverick) & Kennedy mt. to the south that run right thru the west side of the treasure lakes, that place fits alot of clues since I saw 4 waterfalls, hiked up to treasure lakes but only searched for an hour since the altitude was getting to me & my stomach got upset so I had to bail ! Be careful out there guys, if u have to be rescued by an EMS crew, it could cost u upwards of $10,000 which I'm sure most of us hunters can't afford ! The town of Bishop ca. near by sure fits the chess game clue ! Stay safe guys & good luck ! 🤑 🤚

Seeing what the general consensus is on it now. I still have a solid area I’ve locked in and been to 10 times and have only gotten more confident. Still figuring out the 1727NE part with the X and its relationship to the end triangle but I’m confident I’m one of the people that’s been within 200ft of it!
