Warning

Please note: To use the services of geocaching.com, you must agree to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Fort Ord Dunes State Park is located on four miles of Monterey Bay shoreline. The area is open and relatively undeveloped, but has a military history as a small arms training ground. Over 100 abandoned buildings and military remnants are scattered throughout the African ice plant-covered dunes.

Because the park has not yet officially opened, access is limited. The black plastic-covered sign located at this secret trailhead entry indicates that the main entrance to the park will be located to the north. However, that entrance is currently fenced off and closed. In the meantime, entry and parking are available here on the corner of 1st Avenue and 1st Street: the secret trailhead.

The container is a clear plastic Lock & Lock cylinder filled with small trade items and a log. Please bring your own pen to sign the log.

UPDATE: In March 2009, the park officially opened. Hours are 8:00 to a half hour after sunset daily. Admission is free.

Was suppose to have a meeting at the County Office. I found it curious that someone would schedule a meeting on a Holiday, so I loaded up my GPS with a bunch of geocaches just in case I had some free time :-). TNLN
