My "Solves" for Anyone (and those who have asked) Interested!
Post Body

So, about 2 weeks ago, I realized that the way to find the treasure was looking at it on a map, and the plotting points. I did NOT think about arcs tho, because that was never grade school math where I grew up, lol. Mine was 'interdependent' lines or shapes. X (two lines) marks the spot? or triangle with a line up the middle, two triangles (like an hourglass), and then just a regular arrow (no fill line inside the triangle portion.

At first I was using my favorite locations until I decided that they were def using monuments with numbers on them. Here's the PLOT Solves.

  • FIRST SOLVE (X) was Ensign connecting to Mt Timpanogos, crossing with the Kennecott SmokeStack and Granite Quarry. It led me to the 2 Bells Falls trail in Granite area.
  • SECOND SOLVE (FULL ARROW) was plotting 3 top monuments of each category (this one I used 6) and it ACTUALLY FORMED AN ARROW pointing to the Draper hills trails, particularly to the Memory Cove/Lone Canyon trail area (that Window Arch).
  • THIRD SOLVE (Hourglass) was doing the same thing but only 1 of each of the 6. I played around with it until i found something that made enough sense, that put me in Emigration Canyon area.
  • FOURTH SOLVE again but the intersecting arrow and it led me to Bountiful. I never went much deeper than that because 1, I couldnt make it out that far, and 2, I was trying to hike my first 3 first.

1st Main Solve b4 Plotting - I had a few decent solves, but the best one I had (until the parking lot clue happened where John didn't get out of his car or whatever and the Latin clue totally killed that idea even though I had already gone and searched it).

  • Old SaltAir - Time/Transcendent
  • Kennecott Smokestack - Mark Tree
  • the Saltipoles (continuing around towards Tooele) Grain Tower
  • One O'Clock Hill - 1 hour Crest
  • The Asylum - 2 less than clue (there were figures on top (2) and on the main tier were 4 figures.
  • Dark Trail - Frown

Anywho! These were my leading theories for anyone curious and those who asked! :)
