There is $60,000 Cache Buried Along a River in Maine Waiting to be Found

What amount of money is worth a treasure hunt? Is $60,000 enough?

If it is, you're going to want to grab your maps, grab your shovels, gather the crew, and get ready to dig for some treasure.

There is a $60K cache hidden somewhere along a river in Maine, that is likely now worth millions, and it is yours to take.

Back in 1900, Anse Hanley lived outside of Fort Kent near the Allagash River, according to a Devil's Head Facebook post.

Hanley was a skilled whiskey brewer. He sold his spirits to loggers in Maine. But that is not where his fortune came from in the early 1900's.

Hanley knew the area of Northern Maine well. He was so familiar with the deep wilderness of Northern Maine, that he also knew how to get over the Canadian border and back without being seen.

So, Hanley started in the smuggling business. He would smuggle goods from the United States to Canada, and from Canada to the United States.

And that is where the $60,000 cache comes into play. Hanley hid his wealth by burying it.

To this day, the $60,000 has never been found. It is rumored that the cache is still buried near his old cabin near the Allagash River near Fort Kent.

This is not the first time a hidden amount of treasure has been rumored or found in the United States.

The Fenn Treasure was a cache of gold and jewels that Forrest Fenn, an art dealer and author from New Mexico, hid in the Rocky Mountains. It was found over a decade after he hid it in Wyoming by a hunter.

The hunter sold the goods for over 1.3 million dollars.

So Hanley's $60,000 worth of goods hidden somewhere in Northern Maine, along the Allagash River could actually be worth a whole lot more than just 60K...if it is ever found, that is.
