Geocache Description:

Cache is NOT at posted coords. Puzzle answer will lead to a trailhead cache for The Chick's kilo series!

This cache is dedicated to The Chick in participation with her kilo cache hike series! CONGRATULATIONS BUDDY!! This special cache was an absolute group effort. Many thanks to Trurokr for organizing the logistics of this kilo series & Deeznutz for teaching me the HTML laws required for posting the cache page! Also, thanks to Blig for sharing the beginning of this fairy-tale puzzle idea that I finished for Monica! HAPPY CACHING!

Once upon a time in the land of the Conejo, there lived the “Queen of Swag” who ruled over the Lang Ranch Mountain Range & had twelve Pentonimo Crown Jewels. The jewels were very expensive and beautiful. One fine day, the Queen decided she would give away the location of her jewels to the wisest persons in the land. The Queen showed all the cachers the twelve jewels.
"These are the twelve crown jewels of my Lang Ranch kingdom."

"I shall go into my throne room and place SEVEN of these jewels in a box, and then I shall cut three square holes in that box."

The Queen then carried the box filled with the seven jewels to her beloved kilo-caching series for only the wisest of the cachers to discover, who journeyed to the land of Conejo.

Your task is to determine which jewels the Queen used for her swag and based upon the order the jewels were selected by her, determine the coordinates as follows:

N 34 6th 5th . 2nd 5th 2nd
W 118 5th 4th . 3rd 2nd 7th
