Geocache Description:

Near East Atlanta Village, Glen Emerald Park, Flat terrain, beautiful lake, hurry and see it

*UPDATE* I GUESS IT IS PRETTY OVERGROWN TO GET TO THE CHIMNEY....FOLLOW THE PATH TILL THE GPS TELLS YOU TO GO IN THE WOODS AND THEN GRAB THE MACHETE...IT IS AN AMAZING SPOT! SOOO WORTH THE HUNT....IT CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT THAT CHIMNEY/ROCK STRUCTURE WAS....MAYBE IT WAS A SHERMAN SENTINEL FROM THE CIVIL WAR! (visit link)

The cache is an ammo box.

Original contents were:

Frogs from Mexico... (they want to travel home)
Travel Bug
some toys
log book
Delta drink coupons
and a few other fun things

Check out the cool tree on the left side of the trail that has engraving dating back to the 1950's... We will call it the "Name Tree"
