Geocache Description:

In Jackson Towers parking lot, north of the turnpike and across from the US Dept of Energy Federal Bldg. Oak Ridge Operations Center.

This is a magnetic key holder with a log. Please BYOP. The parking lot is busy during regular business hours but the cache location is near the outer perimeter. PLEASE Be watchful for muggles. The cache name is derived from the original facility across the turnpike (south), "The Castle" where the Federal Bldg. now sits. In 1942, Oak Ridge was built as a Secret City with a mission to develop an atomic bomb. The Atomic Energy Commission had it's headquarters where the Federal Bldg. now sits, and it was affectionately called "The Castle". Enjoy your visit.

Please avoid drawing attention to yourself while looking for the cache. If you are fairly new to geocaching, you might consider picking up a cache like this one on the weekend or at night when you would have more time and be less conspicuous. Being stealthy will help keep these caches active and give the next geocacher the thrill of the hunt. Thanks!
