Geocache Description:

Welcome to GTMO! Home of Bannanna rats, monster land crabs, Iguanas, Marines, Coasties and Navy Sailors! If you venture here you're a true world explorer! This is the 2nd cache on the island of Cuba!!!

I was just in the neighborhood and thought this would be an interesting challenge for Geocaching visitors to the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base here on Cuba. The container is a small sandwich-sized tupperware dish hidden inside an old, dilapidated ammo can. The cache is close to the roadside so you shouldn't wander into any of the many hazards associated with a military base in a tropical desert region on a non-allied communist country, but be mindful of:
  1. Razor wire fences
  2. Bannanna rats (mostly timid)
  3. Spiders (Black widows DO live here)
  4. Land crabs - They're big (and tasty, so they tell me)
  5. Armed U.S. Marines

  6. But seriously, I hope you enjoy finding this cache if you ever find yourself visiting this unique and historical little piece of U.S. soil. Happy Geocaching!
