Six Questions with Seven Paces Treasure Hunts – on A Fortune Lies in Vermont
Featured Question:
- 4Q) How would you categorize your clues, and can you provide an estimate of how many clues are in the book to find the treasure? What advice can you give to searchers working on the hunt?
The book is a retelling of our experiences in Vermont while searching for JCB’s treasure, (a wildly embellished version of events but it mostly follows our trail.). As for the clues, it’s hard to give a count. Much of the book is intended to give the reader a general sense of location and direction. My advice would be to not overthink things.
We did not design it to be super difficult. One additional note; we’ve been following the TTI community on discord, facebook and reddit and decided to base a few characters on community members. Some details about the characters in the book that seem odd or out of place could be a clue, or could just be an inside joke that only members of the TTI community will pick up on.

Six Questions with Seven Paces Treasure Hunts – The Legend of Grigg’s Gold
Featured Question:
- 3Q) In our previous Six Questions (for A Fortune Lies in Vermont) you mention its clues to the hidden treasure will get you within about a 50 ft radius. How close will the clues in this hunt get you to the treasure? Is it buried?
It is not buried, not in water, not up high… etc. The clues will lead very close to the treasure. I’d say within 10 feet of it.
