Outdoor adventures & rockhound resources created to influence others to discover the magic in nature
I started this journey back in November and was finally able to get BOTG for the Pokemon Box. If you’ve not bought the book, “There’s Treasure Inside”, buy it now! It’s not only a great book full of history and adventure, but inside the book, the author has left clues to find 5 treasure boxes spread throughout the U.S. Buy the book, grab friends and family. Begin a once in a lifetime adventure!

I just booked my flight to my solve for one of JCB’s hidden treasure boxes. I’m geeked! Be on the lookout for posts documenting my journey as I search for these treasure boxes hidden within the continental U.S.
This is THE largest national treasure hunt in U.S. history. It’s exciting to know that I’m playing a part in this history making event.🧭🗺️🥾💎
If you’ve not read the book, I highly recommend. It’s a Rockhound nerd’s delight. The book is filled with enjoyable stories rich with history and zest for adventure. Within the stories and history, there are hidden clues and puzzles to find the treasure. JCB has included world class, one-of-kind specimens in the all 5 boxes.
Below are some of the incredible treasure items that can be found.
The total value of all 5 boxes is over 2 million dollars!

The best memories I have with my kiddos have been our outdoor adventures. 💎⛏️
