Around here, the land is mostly private
Within 50 miles of Redwood City our maps show no open public land to prospect. That is exactly why a club matters here: clubs have the landowner permissions, the leases and the know-how.
Nearest open public land on our gem and mineral map: about 91 miles away.
Nearest open public land on our fossil and meteorite map: about 218 miles away.
