Clue #1 - Get rooted.
If you can find the tallest giant in the land, you'll find that the million will lie to the East.
Answer #1- Hyperion, Redwood tree, Redwood National Forest, California
Clue #2 - Where the West expands.
The million will lie somewhere to the west of a monumental gateway to the West. The famous landmark is represented in this equation.
y = A (cosh X over L C -1)
x = L over C [cosh-1(1+y over A)]
Where, A = fc over Qb over Qt -1 = 68.7672
C = Cosh -1 Qb over Qt = 3.0022
Answer #2 - The Gateway Arch in St. Louis, Missouri. So, that puts the million East of Hyperion and West of the Gateway Arch.
Clue #3 Kick back in a peaceful place.
If you want a chance to claim the million, you'll have to head South of the first shared international, national park of its kind.
Answer #3 Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park in West Glacier, MT.
CLUE #4 - One Rare Critter -
This once endangered southwestern isopod is naturally found in only one thermal spring and shares its name with the county it lives in. Like this animal, the million will be found in only one spot. And to find it, you'll have to look further North.
ANSWER #4 - North of Sedillo Spring in Socorro County in New Mexico.

Side note: We have a reprieve! Instead of 90+, today it is about 70, cloudy, rainy, lightning and thunder. Oh my!
I love hearing the thunder and watching the sky light up.
When you use google maps- you type in what you are looking for, then you click on the map at the point you are searching, the coordinates will then be up in the box. In order to get the degree symbol (the little circle at the top right of the numbers) use ALT 248 on your keyboard. The North/South (N/S) coordinate will always be the first set of numbers, the East/West (E/W) will be the second set. Always use care to watch for a negative sign as that can really screw up the location if you fail to enter it, also using periods/decimal point as needed. Hope that helps.
I will send out the file to everyone all at once via cc, bcc.
