BALL, N.D. (AP) — The original pipeline protest camp on the Standing Rock Indian Reservation closed Wednesday, as the Bureau of Indian Affairs encouraged people to go home rather than be found trespassing.

The Bismarck Tribune reports, final campers left the Sacred Stone Camp after days of hurried cleanup that followed a warning from the BIA that the campers were trespassing on land majority-owned in trust for the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe.

The camp on the reservation is just south and near the main protest camp called Oceti Sakowin that was on Army Corps of Engineers land and cleared out last week.

The Rev. John Floberg, an Episcopal priest on Standing Rock, who was in the Sacred Stone camp over the past few days, said people left after notice from the BIA, because they wanted to go on their own terms.
