Blue John Canyon.
Martin's first new film directed and starred in will be shot here.
This place is also the place where Aaron Ralston, the protagonist of the autobiography"A Dilemma of Life and Death", broke his arm to save himself after being in danger.
A plane slowly slowed down and finally landed at Moeb Airport in Utah.
Martin and his party got off the plane and immediately got into six off-road vehicles that had been waiting outside the airport for a long time. They drove along Route 78 to a small town called Abbes.
In the town, they joined up with Aaron Ralston.
This young man with a broken arm does not seem to have fallen into a slump because of his disability. He seems to be full of energy and has a high spirit.
The first time he saw Aaron Ralston, Martin knew why such a person could successfully save himself in a desperate situation - he was positive and sunny, and always had expectations for life.
The town of Arbes was not their final destination.
Their destination was Canyonlands National Park to the west of the small town"Trinity Zero".
The Blue John Canyon where Aaron Ralston was in danger is located in this canyon area.
Under the guidance of Aaron Ralston, the convoy entered Canyonlands National Park.
After passing through a narrow canyon, the scenery ahead suddenly changed, and endless wilderness scenery appeared before everyone's eyes.
Under the sunlight, the brown-red sandstone ground reflects a mysterious light, and clusters of sparse shrubs are dotted on it, like spots in the halo. At first glance, it seems like you have arrived in another world.
Once here, the convoy is not allowed to enter. Firstly, it is to protect the original landform; secondly, there are many valleys and there are no roads; thirdly, the terrain of this area is strange, with many caves and cracks, which poses safety risks.
Everyone stored their vehicles in the parking lot of the park management office, and then followed Aaron Ralston to the park with their backpacks on their backs.
As Aaron Ralston walked, he introduced his original hiking route to everyone. As he spoke, he became emotional and said to Martin beside him:
"It feels very special to me to revisit an old place. Martin, you know, when I came here to explore, it was not all because of the landforms, but actually because of a treasure map."
Treasure map?
Now not only Martin was interested, but several bodyguards and crew members who came with Martin also showed interest.
"Have you heard of Finn's Treasure?"
Martin shook his head.
Then Aaron Ralston spoke up.
The so-called Finn's treasure was made by a guy named Forrest Finn.
Don't get me wrong, this is not an ancient man, but a born man. People in modern society.
He was once a pilot in the U.S. Air Force. After retiring from the Air Force in the 1970s, he received a pension, and then he and his partner used the money to open an art gallery. Unexpectedly, they made a huge profit Success.
Later, he and his wife opened a gallery selling American Indian cultural relics, paintings, sculptures and other artworks alone in Santa Fe, New Mexico. This gallery brought him an annual income of US$6 million. Forrest Finn became a multi-millionaire in the 1980s.
However, the good times did not last long. In 1988, Forrest Finn was diagnosed with cancer, and it was likely to progress to the late stage.
This guy After being depressed for a period of time, he suddenly came up with the idea that instead of leaving this world in such a plain way, it would be better to go on a"Raiders of the Lost Ark" style treasure hunt - he collected the finest antiques he had collected over the years, including Gold nuggets, rare gold coins, antique jewelry and gemstones were all put into several bronze boxes and buried in various places across the United States, hoping to be found one day in the future. There are six treasure boxes in total, Forrest Finn filled them with gold coins, antiques and other items. At that time, each treasure chest was valued at between 400,000 and 1.8 million US dollars.
But now, with the depreciation of US dollars, the valuation has exceeded 3 million US dollars.
Forrest Fenn's move was once considered a joke by his friends and family.
But this guy was serious.
He took six treasure boxes, took his own private jet, flew to various parts of the United States, and personally He drove and buried them.
He was the only one in the world who knew about these mysterious treasure places.
However, it would be too difficult and boring for people to discover his treasures.
So, Forrest Finn Decided to let more people participate in this treasure hunt game.
He found a writer and wrote him a memoir called"The Thrill of the Chase" (The Thrill of the Chase), which writes about the wars, treasure hunts and collections he experienced in his life. story.
There is a chapter in the book called"Gold and More", which contains a 24-poem poem containing nine clues. As long as you follow these clues, it is possible to discover the treasure chests he buried.
In order to dispel people's doubts that he is As a stunt to sell the book, Forrest Finn said he would donate all royalties from the book to charity.........
Forrest Finn also announced all the items in his treasure chest and gave photos, and as soon as the media reported it, people were immediately excited about it.
Because this is not like a lottery, it all depends on luck. As long as anyone deciphers the clues in the book, it is possible to find these treasures.
As a result, some professional and amateur treasure hunters, as well as some who wanted to make a fortune, began to look for treasures across the United States based on the clues provided in the book.
Treasure hunters have also set up a website to update the latest treasure hunting information and discuss treasure hunting clues.
And Aaron Ralston is one of these treasure hunters. (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
"So, you found a clue? The treasure is in Canyonlands National Park."
Gordon asked curiously.
Aaron Ralston said:"Yes, I deciphered two clues and found a box containing a treasure map somewhere in the Rocky Mountains. Then I came to the place based on the treasure map. Here, I didn’t expect——"
He shook his broken arm
"Unexpectedly, the treasure was not found, but an arm was lost."He said calmly.
Martin has been silently observing Aaron Ralston: This is an optimistic and strong person, and he is very adventurous.
"Is this Forrest Finn dead?"A staff member asked
"No, he's still alive."
Aaron Ralston's answer surprised many people.
"Didn’t those treasure hiders think about finding the real owner and asking about the location of the treasure?"Another staff member said
"Of course, someone even went directly to Finn's house and threatened him to reveal the location of the treasure."Aaron Ralston shook his head and said:"I don't understand, what fun is there in this? Forrest Finn was even forced to move because of this. By the way, the FBI also suspected that he was a liar and sent people to raid Finn's home. The result was that Finn's home did not have those boxes and the previously claimed treasures, which made more people believe that he was real. The box was buried."
(PS: This is a real event, the author just moved the time of the treasure hunt slightly ahead of time!)
"Later, Finn accepted an interview and explained why he wanted to embark on this treasure hunt, because there are too many poor people in the world who have no hope, which reminded him of his helplessness when he was suffering from cancer. I hope that through this activity, we can give people some hope, especially those who have lost confidence in life."
