Do any of you guys think this treasure has ever been found with finding Chief Blackhawks golden treasure? In some ways it's kind of hard to believe but yet the land looked different then it does now. This treasure makes me think of the Thomas J Beale Treasure.

The story doesn't make much sense to me. If you're inside a fort and you have something that you want to hide from the hostiles outside the fort ... why would you hide it outside? Why not just hide (or bury) it inside the fort?

Although Your hypothesis Makes Sense.
I say YES ! It could still be there if Everyone feels the Story Makes no sense & isn't Real. I Say 50/50 On The story & the same on it still being there. If you know the area & Can Search it.
What do you Got to Lose ?
worst case scenario, you'll need to Charge or Replace your
Batteries after !
