Design and hide a real treasure chest filled with small prizes, then create an elaborate map with riddles and landmarks for others to follow. Choose a location that's challenging but accessible, and include backup clues in case your main hints prove too difficult. The payoff comes from watching treasure hunters work through your puzzle.
