San Fran island
during the Battle of Alcatraz
No wonder it's called the rock!
remembering those who lost their lives in their line of duty
The kitchens
mm salty sea!
The view of freedom
it's a 2 layer cell
Many interesting ways inmates try to break out of the cells
The golden gate bridge on the west of the island
rocky!
lock and load!
and pitch black inside
pokey plants!
The main prison building on the hill
In am in Jail! :3
exploring the outdoors of the rock
food food!
the community areas and library again
solitary confinement!
the life on the rock
Looks like something happened here![The "cuttoff"](../../../../../_data/i/upload/2011/07/26/20110726141914-3ad7d83b-la.jpg "The "cuttoff" (3187 visits)")
The "cuttoff"
Behind these walls
in the open recreational areas
get me out!
I see the light!
many didn't make it across
More fire ravaged buildings
The sky lit roofs
talking about inmate experiences
alcatraz in films
with the double gate and door system
no one knows where they are now, presumed drowned
I am not escaping!
Notable wardens of an era gone
Many tried crossing the bay
Early dismissal from prison
The cliffside walk of the island
in the prison
lie the high security areas of the prison
the spread looks good!
the guide brings you along various key points
Buildings ravaged by the fire
The golden gate in the distance
The main parade square
thick bars, designed to keep stuff in!
Hey all the knifes are missing!
Some of the nicely decorated cells
the vault!
