Geocaching is specifically prohibited within the SPNRC. It is listed along with several other activities on all the info signs at the entrance areas.

Subject: Re: [Az-Geocaching] Contention AZ
Thanks for the relevant research, Paul!
The Contention Townsite does appear to be within the boundaries of the preserve.
If I really wanted to put a cache there, I would still contact the BLM and open a dialog on the subject. There may or may not be special considerations based on the fact that it is a highly disturbed area. Even if a cache could not be placed at the actual townsite, a cache placed at a location overlooking the townsite might be pretty cool just the same!

There might be an issue with placing a cache at Contention because it
might reside inside the San Pedro Riparian Area. If I am right then
access might be a lot further hike from available road than what
my maps
show.
My topo shows there is a 4x4 rd. to within 2 to 3 tenths of a mile...
