I'm still how you can know where camping is allowed outside of dedicated marked sites at regular campgrounds. What's the trick?

Wharton, for example, has marked trails and maps, with areas to be used for camping marked clearly on the map.
On the west coast, it's a bit different. Much more open space.

Depends on the state. WA has a lot of land set aside for recreation and preservation, different areas have different rules. As long as you don't camp on a trail or private property, a lot of the forests are fair game. Head east and pick a spot:troyguitar wrote: ↑Wed Mar 22, 2017 9:37 am I'm still how you can know where camping is allowed outside of dedicated marked sites at regular campgrounds. What's the trick?

The places are dwindling here. Locked gates and fences everywhere. You can camp in this vicinity. Thats it. If you go outside of said vicinity you are starting a fire or littering. Gotta keep our forests clean amd the humans out!troyguitar wrote:I'm still how you can know where camping is allowed outside of dedicated marked sites at regular campgrounds. What's the trick?

Camping is pretty the only experience we had was an attempt at primitive camping and my gf and her friend got into a bad argument because it was her friend's bday and she basically gave no shits about us, the park, the camping rules, the ranger rules, etc. and then got mad at us as if it was our fault she went out partying the night before and got hungover and woke up late, so we just and went to Disney instead, after we dropped them off at the camp site and their other friends got there.

Sounds like a problem with a bitchy chick, not camping.razr390 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 28, 2017 4:27 pm Camping is pretty the only experience we had was an attempt at primitive camping and my gf and her friend got into a bad argument because it was her friend's bday and she basically gave no shits about us, the park, the camping rules, the ranger rules, etc. and then got mad at us as if it was our fault she went out partying the night before and got hungover and woke up late, so we just and went to Disney instead, after we dropped them off at the camp site and their other friends got there.

Came in here to make a pitched tent joke.[user not found] wrote: ↑Wed Mar 22, 2017 9:28 am In this thread, we will see someone eventually pitch a tent.
Carry on.
Glad to see someone else is already on the case.

When my wife and I are watching movies or documentaries about historical shit, we almost always comment about how hygiene is something we both really appreciate.
