Geocache Description:

CACHE IS NOT AT LISTED COORDINATES!

If you've visited the rest of the King & Queen's kingdom, you may learn the location of the Royal Couple's hidden treasure.

Final of "The Royal Couple" 8-part series of caches all centered around the King and Queen buildings in Sandy Springs. There are 7 caches you must visit in order to find the 8th (this one), which has a stash of better-quality trade items.

** CACHE IS NOT AT LISTED COORDINATES! **

33.54 ABCD
084 2V.WXYZ


Cache is rated as a 4/4 due to need to visit several other caches (Difficulty 4) and terrain is rather rough at final cache location (Terrain 4). ** Helpful tip - on close approach go up the hill at the end of the ivy cascade, then walk the crest south until the cache is directly to your right, then down you go! **

Also note that there is a geocaching Challenge named "Hanging out with Atlanta's Royal Couple" associated with this series.
