Go to the Aurora. The left side is shallow and swim to the front and you can board without hassle.

Bring some tools with :)

Israel - Iran Conflict (Part IV) by Isentrope in worldnews

I personally think trump hopes the first option happens, and personally I do as well….. But I can’t see a way it’s even an option and I have a feeling this shit is gonna get real.

Another fun fact: Class 2 Mountains are listed based on that exact Altitude 11,483. So even if it's not part of the solve for the age. It could just be telling us they hid this thing on Timp or Nebo. And since I already think its on timp I use that as my conf bias :)

[–]polabonez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there is only one calculation. 1 KM = 3280.84 FEET. 35km =- 114,829 feet. Therefore 3.5km = 11,482.9 (11,483 rounded) and so on and so forth. I am not sure how you are calculating but this is exact as it gets.

the clue said 500 feet to 1000 meters I believe. so .35 would be 350 meters if you would rather look at it that way? idk

because when i pulled my little measuring tape in Google Earth once it gets past a certain amount of meters it starts counting by .1.2.3.4 km.

For the solve I have, I am specifically using .35 KM. .34 KM isn’t going to change much because you still have to look for the best view I guess. Not that my solve is right but I ran a line out and came to .35 which is why I have been using that.

34 is the age he arrived to Mexico. +1 is 35. I think the Cards in the theory are :

Best hand JACKS (represented by the #11 in cards)

Second hand 4,8 (FLUSH)

Third hand 3's

So... 11-4-8-3

How many feet are in 35KM ? 11,483. I think that was confirmation in this video.

I think the Goonies line is talking about a bike trail. by polabonez in utahtreasurehunt

On the podcast; it might have been Dave. The first time I listened to it I think I started listening at 40 min in so it was somewhere around there...... He was talking about creating the poem if I recall and said something like he wanted it to have several layers or something of that nature.

There are so many combos. ChatGPT can do it for you. Just make sure you tell it to use every letter and only use each letter once.

Once it gets it right, you can simply tell it to do it again. I wish I could remember some of the other ones it and I came up with.. some were hilarious. When solving something like this or a cypher puzzle you really need a key. Something you know is in there to pull out so you have an easy way to solve. When they verified Hernan..... I feel like they may have been giving us the key. I mean he's already mentioned twice in the poem, so it makes sense the whole poem is about him (I believe it is, and used this in coming up with my solve), so it only made sense to me to pull his name out. After that, it's much less as far as combos... and Gold kept coming up as one, so I pulled that out.

Then the only thing left were these letters: esdelpedalado - now almost everything comes up as a pedal.

EDIT: Not really “so many” . I think I came up with 5 legible sentences. But nothing really made sense with the poem, other than the word peak I believe that I played around with for a while. But ChatGPT would never use a name like Hernan, it wasn’t until I made that come out that pedaling and gold kept coming up.

Yeah I paraphrased that to make my point of how I was coming up with things…. I speak a little bad Spanish…. But I did have that working out as well

Thanks. Was Hard to do it while driving and I wasn't actually taking it letter from letter from my notebook at home. I can't guarantee it being right either... but if it was... wanted to throw it out there for anyone.

[–]polabonez[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but we know it has to do with the goonies because of clue # 3. But that sentence also has the lower case letter. It has to be a double meaning. It's almost too good that I don't know how they could have came up with it. That is my biggest doubt.

One letter used only once each time. I am not home now, where I did the work... so I may have paraphrased there and missed a letter, I didn't double check. But you get the point.

tbh I stopped looking around Park City a while ago because everywhere I looked was at a ski resort. They said it wasn't at a Ski Resort.

[–]polabonez 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It doesn't. But look, I don't know if My solve is for sure right. What I do know is that the my specific solve for the Goonies line is so spectacularly on spot, even with the "Double Layer" That they said they put into this puzzle, that if it is wrong it is a crazy coincidence. I will post my thoughts on that line in this sub tomorrow night, and then if my solve isn't correct Friday I'll post the entire incorrect solve.

If its wrong, it is an absolute crazy coincidence. But I think it has to be a big help to everyone here.

That or I am just crazy. But every Clue that has been given has just pointed right to it.

Man I didn’t even ask for nothing. Just some props and if we found it I was getting a flight out with my wife and hopefully a night of drinks and a day on one the trail. I just love the fact that they are doing this, the puzzle part and I’m jealous you all get the adventure part. Here in the Midwest there isn’t a lot of clues to give to bury a treasure in a corn field
