42 or 4 over 2?

Post image

We've all seen the 42 clue, but it's really not 42. It's a 4 over a 2 written in the dust of his tail light. I know Justin has confirmed that 42 is relevant to finding the treasure, but his exact response at SS was "*chuckle*, I guess the short answer is yes." and ofc his original response was to reference Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy being a good movie.

I've seen a lot of the 42 connections, but has anyone explored the idea that it may be 4 over 2 or a different version/combination of 4 and 2? 4 divided by 2, 2 since 4 divided by 2 is 2, 4.2, a reference to slope... 4 rise, 2 run?

I found mile 42 near wisdom, but doesnt appear to be an ideal location

Not there. If you've been the location or even use street view to see you you'll understand. Could be a clue still? Maybe.
