Secrets Revealed!

[question]

What filmguy is saying is that Fenn was sloppy in all aspects of the Chase, which didn't exactly reflect the precision of a former fighter pilot. The whole thing was an overhyped mess. Really, it was just entertainment for a lonely, old man who sold it well, just like the junk in his gallery.

11th secret on deck...X Marks The Spot!

On February 23, 2016, Fenn told us to use the X hidden in the poem to find the chest. From Mysterious Writings,

Forrest Fenn I hope,

I am new to the treasure search and there is so much contradictory information on the blogs I don’t know what to believe and what I shouldn’t. It must be just as confusing for you to read. Can you tell me anything that will help me? Thank you Mister Fenn. Adell

PS, I am a city girl.

I will try Adell.

Read the blogs for entertainment, and the poem like you were going to put an X on a map. Beyond that I am not compelled to reiterate. Hunt prepared and go safely. Good luck. f

There is indeed an X hidden in the poem that will lead you to the treasure provided that you have the blaze and know how to read the poem.

Time is on my side. Jack will soon get stuffed!

There is no X in the poem but the poem tells you how to draw the X on a Google map. Fenn's answer to the question has several hints that relate to the X, but you have to have already drawn it.
