Unfortunately I don't have a great answer. Unlike Escape rooms that have become somewhat common, Treasure Hunts are a location specific event that are not run particularly frequently. Depending on your area, treasure hunts nearby might be run once or twice a year or even much less often. A Google search of "Treasure Hunts in [YOUR LOCATION]" is the easiest and most basic place to start, but there is no guarantee that one will exist, let alone be happening soon. You could also try looking for Treasure Hunt focused chat groups on Reddit or similar sites. Though I cannot advise for or against any specific ones because I am not part of any :P In the case of this event, my mom saw an article about it in the local newspaper and we kept tabs on it from the hunt website from there. Another consideration that I HIGHLY ADVISE if you are considering a particular hunt is to ask yourself "Does this Hunt seem legit". I have seem several good treasure hunts, but also several "Get Rich Quick" scams masquerading as Treasure Hunts. I usually check to see if a hunt has at least one or two events run previously where the full hunt mechanics and results were made public. If that looks good, the hunt is more likely legit. If it's the first time an event is being run, proceed with caution, especially if you have to pay for entry to the hunt. If you don't have any nearby, reputable, treasure hunts to work on, I recommend trying Geocaching as a substitute. It is much more common and scratches some of that same itch as Treasure Hunting.
As a fellow treasure hunter, this was so fun to watch. Really hoping we get a reaction video of the 2024 Uncharted Lancaster treasure hunt too!
You summed this up perfectly! We were on the hunt (Pinto's World) and loved it.
I loved the storytelling in this video, great to see your team won and you managed to make a wonderful video out of it. Congrats!
I'm glad that you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :)
Glad to see you back! I'm sure these videos take a ton of work to make but they are appreciated!
I'm glad that you enjoy them!!
I missed your content man! Glad you posted something!
Damn, Antony, looking sharp today.

Where are you?
I'll be on Twitch in about half an hour. But also I shot/edited a new video for release February 9th!
Whew, gotta say, it's obvious you're not a local...this is painful to watch! 🤣 "Lancaster" is pronounced very unlike what you are saying.
