Arvid's Treasure Oliver Olesson

Arvid's Treasure is the story of Andrew, a young out-of-work magazine writer faced with the challenge of planning his future. Andrew's Aunt Annie tells him the family legend of Uncle Arvid who, in the late 1800's, disappeared after sending from Colorado a tin box containing a silver ingot and a map. Annie convinces Andrew that even if searching for Arvid's treasure turns out to be a wild goose chase, the search will provide experiences and adventures that will help Andrew decide his future. Along the way, Andrew finds romance with Jane, a pretty naturalist. He also finds danger by stumbling onto a group of ruthless poachers. The story of Arvid's Treasure is superimposed over a backdrop of historical events and scenes from Rocky Mountain National Park.
