Geocache Description:

Hidden along the Eliza Furnace bike trail, also known to locals as the "Jail Trail". This cache is NOT accessible from the parkway (I-376).

The Eliza Furnace Trail is part of the Three Rivers Heritage system and connects the Greenfield neighborhood to downtown Pittsburgh. It also connects via the Hot Metal Bridge to the South side. It is a paved, handicap accessible trail suitable for walking, jogging, biking, and skating.

San Quentin State Prison is located in Marin County in California and is the oldest prison in the state, opening in July, 1852. It houses the largest male "death row" population in the country. The land on which it is situated, Point Quentin, is named after a Coast Miwok warrior. Eldridge Cleaver, Merle Haggard, Charles Manson, and Sirhan Sirhan have all spent some time there.

You are looking for a camo'd pill bottle. BYOP. We will adjust the difficulty and/or add a hint depending upon early reviews. Please exercise stealth. Enjoy!

Congrats to egroeg for the FTF!
