manthing Posted August 1, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2023 As with most things in life there are rules when wild camping, its those that don't follow the rules that generally fluff it up for them that do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no more risk of fires than there were over the last few hundred years it's already been going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As always it is those that think RtR means they can go anywhere and do anything they like that cause the problems, there are , however, distinct rules and designated areas where it applies.
