Geocache Description:

You will be visiting historical Fort Reno. The fort was a military camp in 1874, but became an established military post in 1875.

Troops from Fort Reno were assigned to preserve the peace and direct the orderly transition of the Indian Territory from reservation to individual farms and ranches. They also supervised the first great Land Run of 1889 that opened the Unassigned Lands for settlement. The fort has served several different functions since then, and the building you will be entering was built by German prisoners of World War II, who were interred at Fort Reno during the 1940's.

There is no fee to enter the fort, but you are required to stop at the Visitor's Center for a pass, and you might want to pick up a map for the self-guided tour of the fort and information about the fort's history. If asked, the director, Connie Yellowman, gave us permission to place the cache. But they may not know about the cache at the visitor's center.

Hours of operation are Monday-Friday, 10-5 and Saturday-Sunday, 10-4.

No need to bring a trade, but you will need to bring your own pencil. There is a small reward waiting for you when you find the cache.

PLEASE REPLACE THE CACHE EXACTLY AS YOU FOUND IT.

Hope you enjoy this piece of Oklahoma History!
