A magnet has north and south poles. Could the container be hidden in a pond or stream? The container could be a hollow rock. Some item made of iron tied to a rope..

Justin revealed that the logo for his treasure hunt might be helpful in solving the riddle. If we assume that the image represents the Earth, then the treasure marked with an "x" would be hidden beneath the Earth's surface.

If we play with the idea that the Earth’s surface forms a map, then “Beyond the map’s edge” takes on a new meaning. The treasure could be located beneath this map. The Earth’s surface is this “edge.”

All of this could, in turn, be connected to the fact that the events in "Alice in Wonderland" take place in an underground world. The image published by Arkade could also depict Alice, which would reinforce this idea of the logo and the Earth.

Picture: "Cheshire Cat" in the Ursa Major

This is the weirdest thing that has ever happenend to me! I can't believe how did I manage to "solve" Justin's riddle.

In the poem on Justin’s website, part of the text is in “the shadowed sights.” A cryptic message: “v be flow C”. The velocity is the speed of light. My solution to this mystery is GRAVITY. Gravity "lives" in spaceTIME as we all know.

"In Ursa east his realm awaits":

JP quoted the author of the "Alice in Wonderland" in the Netflix series. So, if this character is familiar from his stories, it’s good to remember that Alice adventured in Mirrorland, where everything was turned upside down. So, for example, if the Cheshire Cat says he’s in Ursa east, he’s actually in Ursa Major. In this particular constellation, there is a pattern created by a GRAVITATIONAL lens, which scientists call "the CHESHIRE CAT" because of its shape. Now I knew that I needrd to find this cat somewhere in the American west.

"Walk near waters silent flight" :

The Native Americans called Portland “Still Water", so I’ll start my journey there.

"Round the bend – Pass the Hole" :

My route takes a turn after the town of Bend. I’ll pass Crater Lake whose original name was "HOLE Lake"

If we continue in a straight line from the city of Bend, passing by Crater Lake, we’ll notice that the route takes us through a recreational area named "Alice in Wonderland" in Ashland. All the trails in this area are named after characters from the Alice's stories.

There I found the Cheshire Cat Trail and about 200 feet from this path is a large, round, cracked boulder. Next to it was a piece of rock about 6 inches wide. The material of this stone is known as the Ashland Pluton. This type of rock is found only at the summit of Mount Ashland, located about 6.5 miles south of this site. I belive this is the item that should be found on the "Checkpoint". It clearly points to the certain direction as JP has told it would do.

I drove up to the Mount Ashland and left my car in the parking lot. I walked about a MILE up the road and saw something interesting. Next to the road stood a massive rock formation that the locals call the "Rabbit Rock." As we know, White Rabbit also lives in the Wonderland. This is important because Justin has said that a MILE FROM THE PARKING LOT, you’ll see something that will help you move forward in your treasure hunt. He had also said that there could be found some help by reading some other than his book. I believe this rock formation is the thing Justin was talking about. And, the book is the Alice in Winderland.

Near this rabbit rock, I noticed a smaller rabbit rock. Next to it was a stone circle that resembled a miniature version of the standing stones at Stonehenge. I believe the smaller rabbit is the larger rabbit's BRIDE, and the stones in the circle are the “ANCIENT GATES" that she is guarding.

According to the additional clues Justin gave, “Return her face” means that the Bride’s head must be turned. The smaller rabbit was facing west, so I had to continue my search in the east.

"Double arcs on granite bold":

"Granite bold" is a FONT, so the double arcs could represent the letter M. I noticed that McDonald Peak is located east of the Bride, and I headed there to continue my search.

"Wonder guards this sacred space":

On the mountain ridge, I saw a massive rock formation that resembles a LIZARD's HEAD. This natural wonder gazed directly at a cubic black rock below. The sacred stone of Muslims is, of course, the black rock of Kaba. Kaba means "cube," which in turn refers to a SPACE in mathematics. So, a wonderful lizard guards this sacred space.

Justin has said that once you’ve solved all the riddles, you’ll find yourself in an area about the size of a typical American kitchen. I wonder if this could mean that the treasure is hidden among the boulders of the McDonand Peak? JP also said that once the final location is known, the treasure will be something to retrieve rather than search for. To pick up like a Big Mac meal?

Bang, Bang! Justin announced at Seekers Summit 2026 that the treasure isn’t in Oregon. My whole house of cards collapsed and I almost can't believe it.

Could someone explain how it’s possible that I found that rare piece of rock at the Checkpoint that’s only found on a specific mountain peak? Who had brought it there? I noticed there was some dead grass underneath the stone, so it couldn’t have been there for decades.
