Emergency Closure Notice of Public Lands on Fort Ord
BLM officials are also considering removing the existing Geocaches (estimated to be around 60) currently at Fort Ord. With most of them located away from the existing trails, their presence encourages unauthorized trespassing into areas potentially containing UXO. The BLM estimates that hundreds of recreational visitors are attracted to Fort Ord each month due to the existing Geocaches.
