I have always thought that the forum has lacked a good resource for wildcamping spots. I realise that there is a wildcamping thread in the camping section however it is time consuming to trawl through dozens off pages on the off chance that you might find a good spot in an area you are planning on visiting.
I gave it some thought and and came to the conclusion that if there was a "wildcamping spots thread" in each regional forum that only included spots from within that region it would make it really easy to find spots exactly where you need them. Obviously it is also a great chance for us to share spots with others in our area. The other knock on effect would be that people would be more likely to attend meets in other regions as they would stumble upon meet threads when looking for wild camping spots.
I hope you guys are on board with this and can see it's merit. If we can make this thread a success (and let's face it, it should be easy as we live in one of the most stunning locations in the country) hopefully we can convince other regions to follow suit with a similar thread.
So what would each post need??
Location - postcode, address, directions (if you pm me I can always add a map to it)
Amenities - brief list of them
A little description, why you like it etc
A few photos
That's it!
Remember you don't have to have stayed there to post it up on here. If you see a great spot take a few pics and post it up here.
I know there are plenty of seasoned campers out there in our region. I need you guys to help me lead the charge on this one. Every single spot you post is worthwhile but please guys let's keep it strictly posting spots in here. If you want to know more about a spot or thank the poster then send them a pm.T:T:T:
As an extra incentive I will post up the location of the spot from the below pictures once we get to 50 spots. If you already know the location then please don't say.
