SANTA CRUZ MOUNTAINS, CA — A $1,000 cash prize hidden along a Santa Cruz Mountains hiking trail has been found, days after a treasure hunt kicked off. The Instagram account @theofficialtreasurehunt released its first clue last week: "A place fit for a Queen, Can you smell what he's cooking?" A mother and her two sons recognized the hiding place as Castle Rock State Park, then hit the trails, according to a video posted Monday by organizers. The cash was hidden in a box, lodged between two rocks near an overlook. Miss your chance to find the prize? The organizers behind @theofficialtreasurehunt are already planning a new hunt.
