The authorities are itching to put a stop the game by having the author reveal where the treasure is hidden.
Being the libertarian that I am.....I say let the game continue. It's something interesting in a boring, work filled world. Let people take responsibility for themselves. We don't need the heavy hand of government stepping in to every situation.

I think they need to publicize the last paragraph of the article - the 80 year old man who hid the treasure drove to the spot and then walked there from where he parked his car.
You don't need to risk your safety to get there, at all. Sad that those who died trying didn't know that, apparently.
If the relevant authorities are going to let the games continue, then they need to tell participants that if they get into trouble, search and rescue teams won't be sent out and have their safety put at risk over someone else's desire to play a game, and that taxpayers won't be sent any bills.
Clearly all these treasure hunters need a Colorado Search and Rescue Card.
"Colorado residents and visitors are well served by dedicated volunteer search and rescue teams. By purchasing a Colorado Outdoor Recreation Search and Rescue (CORSAR) card you are contributing to the Search and Rescue Fund, which will reimburse these teams for costs incurred in search and rescues across the State of Colorado. The CORSAR card is available for $3 for a one-year card and $12 for five-year card."
Get the 5 yr card. It will give you more time to search for the treasure. Even if you aren't coming to search, buy one for the cool factor, to show all your friends and family.
