The increasing loss of free camps

[macca]

Well Cuppa I have taken a while to read and digest your posts and those of our fellows.
I am not at all surprised by the attitude of the RV mob that are lobbying for their exclusivity.
We wanted to camp on the Calliope River in QLD a few years back, all the spots on the road by the river were taken by wheeled camps of all sorts, not a single tent.
And all of these ass wipes had black corrugated waste hoses running from their abode down the river bank toward the river, we were thoroughly disgusted by the ignorant so and so's.
What was incredible were the number of association stickers on the back of their vehicles.
I have a low tolerance for those type of people and they are probably all supporting the exclusive access you were talking about.
Yes we leave our waste water behind when camping, but put it round the base of a tree if possible, give a little back if I can....
And dig a hole for #2's burn the paper the back fill the hole when no WC is available.
NZ is getting tougher, Dad said the Department of Conservation over there is making it harder. I'm not sure of the time frame but have heard all NZ Wicked, Jucy type vans have to carry a porta pot.
Our neighbour has a RV, he can not understand why I go off road with such an expensive vehicle as the Patrol. He loves the heard aspect of their gathering / conventions, I love the isolation.......
