It is madness the things that happen and the costs that arise But if we had places to go then the goverment could save a fortune is how I see it I mean by rights if your going out on a hike you should let the Mountain rescue Guys and the such know your route and stops. But if your having to do things in secret then when someone see's a light or a fire in the forest at night they naturally ring the police as it could be people nicking sheep or wild ones out on a drugs rave.
And at the end of the day we the bushcrafters could work together with these guys and save a lot of money and hassle for the police and farmers I mean if I saw anything I thought wasnt normal when out it is one of the first things I would do after checking with the rest of any group I was with.
At the end of the day we the bushcrafters could be a part of the bigger picture it's what the govermant wants anyway the big society It will be nice to sit around a fire with you one day to put the worls to rights
