His program will focus on the mystery surrounding Forrest Fenn, the treasure in cache and gold he hid and the decade long search for it. Learn about where the discovery was made by Jack Shuef, a treasure hunter, former journalist and medical student and if the location in contention will be settled during a bench trial. The program is sure to be fascinating in why Forrest Fenn, an 80 year old art dealer and writer hid a treasure worth 2 million dollars in the Rocky Mountains, the decade in which many attempted to find it to include a poem associated with the hunt, why the finder remained anonymous until 2020 and what the pending trial may reveal.
The public is welcome and invited to check out the website: peterscreekhistoricalsociety.org for further information on the society, the Enoch Wright House and Log Cabin. Docents will be on hand for tours of the Enoch Wright House on Wednesday, August 10 from 6pm-8pm and Sundays, August 14 and 28 from 2pm-4pm.
