In my younger days that was a great time but now I need to have a vehicle nearby!

Now that I have gotten older I prefer comfort. I enjoy my bed in my camper. I enjoy my heater. I enjoy my a/c if I need it. I enjoy a hot shower and a crapper to sit on

older....you're younger than i am! i'm 39, going on 25.

UMM. you can do that anywhere.. take your backpack and walk into the woods and camp. theres places.. just dont look into public camping or rv parks.. some camps up north you have to park a mile away cause theres no roads to the actual site!.. Theres gotta be that here.. Its a good experience. Foil cooking, light weight back packing.. its a whole nother world. Now im not sayint go hunt like that cause you need slot of stuff to hunt.. IM saying just for camping in general.

Its next to impossable now with all the new laws under the federal leave no trace act. you end up carrying out twice what you bring in. As of last year On any public land in the country you must bring a portable fire pit, digging a hole can put you in jail or fined. leaving the ashes will also get you jailed or fined or both. if you take a crap you are supossed to crap in a bag and take it out with you and deposit it in a proper wast station or get fined or go to jail.

now as for Florida, most public lands have designated camping areas and it is illegal to camp out side those areas. now if you interested in a primitive camp I know a place that is free and close by theres about a mile walk from the parking lot to the camping area and there is no water or electricity. the lats time I was there was 9 months ago, the hatchet I stuck in a tree 3 years earlier was still there so obviously nobody goes there 😀
