SAFE HUNTING TIPS

Before heading outdoors to search for the treasure, it is important to tell a friend or loved one where you are searching and when you will be expected back. As a courtesy to players, we’ve included a private logbook for players to note this information. In the extreme event that a player is reported missing by authorities, we will use this information to guide search teams to the player’s possible location.

• The treasure will never be placed in an area that requires a dangerous hike to access.
• The treasure will never be placed in an active hunting zone.
• Use safe hiking techniques. Make your presence known. Call out periodically and/or wear noisemaking items (like a rattling can) to deter wildlife.
• Treasures are hidden on public land.
• Be smart. Bring water, snacks, a compass, a trail map. Always let someone know where you are hiking and when you plan to return.
• Always wear high visibility clothing.
• We advise not hiking in inclement weather like rain, snow, extreme heat, wind, or lightning.

If you find the treasure, read the card beneath the treasure for instructions on how to clear the site, safely exit the premises, and collect your winnings.

If you find the treasure, we recommend you do not tell anyone between when you pick it up and when you return to your car or home. Veil will leave a small unmarked bag at the site to collect the trail cam and game hardware. We advise you to place the treasure in the bag hidden away and act as if you don’t have it.
