Solo Wild Camp Ruined at Raven's Crag - Etiquette of Wild Camping, Does It Exist?
It was my first solo wild camp in a while, I was so looking forward to it. Unfortunately it got ruined! Does the etiquette of wild camping really exist? I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below.
Please let it be know, I DO NOT think I have the god given right to tell people where to pitch up. I'm just asking for privacy when I'm out on my camps.
I had planned the trip to Raven's Crag after the weather turned nasty up in Scotland so the plan was to do a solo camp here then push on and meet Matt & Martin the next day and head for a mountain tarn camp to do some fishing.
I got there pretty early and found nobody else up there. I had the pick of the spots. That all changed later on as you will find out in this video when I was faced with another group of campers who unintentionally disrupted my solo camping experience.
I'll also provide some tips and insights into the etiquette of wild camping and how to navigate camping near others while respecting nature and preserving the tranquility of our surroundings.
Etiquette of Wild Camping:
Wild camping etiquette is all about respecting the space and privacy of fellow campers. I'll share my experience of how other campers pitched their tents too close to mine, and discuss the importance of giving each other enough space for a comfortable and peaceful camping experience.
Respecting the Outdoors:
Preserving the natural beauty of the outdoors is crucial. The prohibition of fires on mountain or crag tops to protect the environment is a must. Please respect the signs posted on the way up to these beautiful spots for us all to enjoy. There were umpteen fire pits that weren't cleared, leaving massive scaring on the landscape. Come on! LEAVE NO TRACE please!
Creating a Harmonious Atmosphere:
When camping near others, being considerate and mindful of noise and behavior is essential. I'll share practical tips on how to navigate limited camping space, minimize disturbances, and promote a friendly and respectful camping environment.
