remembering those who lost their lives in their line of duty
San Fran island
No wonder it's called the rock!
Many interesting ways inmates try to break out of the cells
it's a 2 layer cell
during the Battle of Alcatraz
the life on the rock
The view of freedom
Behind these walls
The kitchens
lock and load!
and pitch black inside
mm salty sea!
solitary confinement!
exploring the outdoors of the rock
pokey plants!
Looks like something happened here
The golden gate bridge on the west of the island
food food!
rocky!
talking about inmate experiences
get me out!
The main prison building on the hill
lie the high security areas of the prison
In am in Jail! :3
many didn't make it across![The "cuttoff"](../../../../../_data/i/upload/2011/07/26/20110726141914-3ad7d83b-la.jpg "The "cuttoff" (3130 visits)")
The "cuttoff"
in the prison
the community areas and library again
Many tried crossing the bay
with the double gate and door system
in the open recreational areas
Early dismissal from prison
Crude simple spectator seats
Some of the nicely decorated cells
More fire ravaged buildings
the guide brings you along various key points
Hey all the knifes are missing!
I am not escaping!
Notable wardens of an era gone
I see the light!
The cliffside walk of the island
no one knows where they are now, presumed drowned
the spread looks good!
The city of San Fran in the distance
cheese! precarious looking structure on a cliff!
The sky lit roofs
Buildings ravaged by the fire
the vault!
The administrative block
