Boondocking camping3/28/2023 Try not to leave behind excessive evidence that you got stuck in the mud, and avoid the hassle of digging yourself back out. This is a tricky one but a good general rule of thumb is to use established campsites (where the grass is clearly worn out, fire pits are built, and so on) it’s a good idea to reuse those rather than destroy a new slice of nature. Just as hikers are encouraged to stay on the trail, boondockers should avoid “blazing trails” or going off-road unless it’s specifically permitted in the area you’re camping. Check with the local authority, sometimes a posted sign or sometimes a nearby ranger station, to see what you’re allowed to do. Some places will allow you to gather and burn firewood, others do not. Find a spot where your rig can fit comfortably and try not to alter the landscape otherwise. In most cases, you shouldn’t really move rocks or logs in general, and do your best to leave everything just as you found it. Don’t collect pine cones, drag out stones, cut down trees, or clear brush.
