Geocache Description:

Ithaca's Bug Prison: A Rough/Tough/Busy spot!!

Tired of seeing "Goes Everywhere" or "No Goal" on a TB? This PRISON will return the TB back to Geocaching fully rehabiltiated with a new look on life. How about those "COPY" Coins? We want to see the real Coin! Or, place the trouble making TB's here too.

Our Detroit Prison was over crowded. The prison fires have shut down cell blocks F-J. See: GC180W5. This new facility should help our over crowding problem.

Do Not Search in our "Kill Zone". (That would be bad.)

The Prison Cemetery

This prison is a steel hardened ammo box. Show your GPSr to the guards as you enter the main compound and the inner perimeter. Hold it up to the chest.

(Our newest guard is trigger happy!)

CACHERS TAKE NOTICE: All Tasers, firearms and pepper spray MUST be turned in at the outer gate fence. Even if you have a PERMIT!

Do NOT touch the electric fences. ( We have 220V, 3 phase power running to them.) (Do Not Walk your Dogs here.) NO Dogs Allowed visiting the prison. They make our Guard Dogs upset. The judge for this prison is known as "The Hanging Judge." The warden is easier though. This prison has 180 channel cable TV and the best food in Ithaca!

Prison sentences will be reduced for good behavior. Also, I expect some prison break outs and early transfers too. Place your Travel Bugs in here and list what they have done wrong. Or, they could be just visiting the inmates.



°°°MORE RULES FOR THIS CACHE°°°(Prisons Like Rules!) This is a traditional cache with the simple rule of “take somethin’ / leave somethin’”. The travel bug aspect of it is a little different. Many people like coming to the prison to liberate one of these naughty or nasty travel bugs. Please respect everyone and give everyone a chance to rescue travel bugs. Please only take one or two per registered name, unless you are dropping off more guests. You don’t have to leave anything according to the rules unless you take something other than a travel bug. Remember to leave the cache how you found it. Do NOT visit the prison if you have outstanding tickets or warrants. (You may become one of our new inmates.)

First , Second, and Third finders will be listed here as the Fastest Cachers in this area.
