Geocache Description:


Folks in these here parts think the Buckeye Bandit is just a rotten scoundrel… but it’s not his fault! His pa, “Gus, Paved the Way” for his life of crime.

The Bandit is currently doing time in the local jail. While he’s plotting his escape… his loot is left unattended at his favorite hide out.



If he had been at the hide out instead of playing “Geo-Bingo” at “Whistling Cave” with the beautiful “Twin Cave” sisters he might have been able to make a quick getaway on horseback, by hopping a passing train, by scaling a rock cliff or by boat to evade the local sheriff & the posse that was hot on his trail!



His infamous career consists of:

· Robbing the southbound stage coach while “Riding Shotgun” on the stage coach trail.

· Making “Wanda Wheezy” after stealing a kiss.

· Looting the “Queen Persimmon’s” fruits.

· Holding the “Little Village People” hostage during a bank robbery.

· Crashing the “Wedding Cache” while running from the law.

· Stealing the “Bronson Cave’s Treasure”.





*** IMPORTANT TELEGRAM ***

March 16, 2009

Buckeye Bandit has busted out of jail!


While fleeing on the “Bike Trail” after snatching the “Hoosier Pioneer Cache” he accidentally sprung the “Stonehenge” during an ambush where he was seen firing on the “Kiln’s” Brothers… He eventually escaped by route of “Spring Mill 7” out the original park gate.



*** REWARD ***



At 4’ 5” and 60 lbs: He is considered to be Armed & Dangerous! He was last seen riding with the Bumblebee Buddies...

Do Not try to apprehend on your own! Contact the local sheriff.

Beware… You never know when the Buckeye Bandit will return!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
