Geocache Description:

Rocky...& be prepared to get a bit wet...or very wet if you get to stage 2! Booties & snorkel gear may be / are necessary.

The Bug Thieves are on a quest to acquire and imprison bugs. We think your caches are way too easy, and want to punish your Nasty Travel Bugs.

To that end we have built a two-stage search. The main cache is in an ammo can with writing on it. It is clearly visible...if you are tough enough to get within 15 feet of it.

The REAL cache -- the stolen bug cache -- is in a Bertolli's jar. It is somewhat harder to get to. The Bearing and range is in the ammo can and is only available to those actually arrive. Start early and plan to get wet as it sits in 2 fathoms of water at the bottom of a very rewarding swim through!

** Though we are finding TBs and placing them in our very FUN yet difficult cache, this is not a TB prison. If nobody attempts our awesome cache, I will personally take them to a easy (wimpy, muggle ridden) cache near the ST Thomas airport for easy access.**

** The bearing and range to the underwater jar is accurate, so please place the ammo can exactly where you found it... that is of course if you make it!**
