                Literally the original one, obviously. To this day there hasn't been a 1:1 translation. A lot of people will say the King James Bible, and that's because that's the Bible the original WASPs used. So it's a decent Bible. But it leaves out all the esoteric truths

                The US used to have Right to Roam. Then slavery was ended and some former slave owners got antsy about Black folk walking across their land, so we did away with that. Another case of rich c**ts spoiling things for everyone else.

                law is hardly a social "agreement," it is the things which the ruling faction can force others to do. sometimes that lines up with what is actually good for people sometimes not. regardless, property law as modern capitalist subjects (especially in the US) know it is a historical aberration which was founded at the point of a gun. at basically every point in history where common land has been enclosed people have fought to the death against it.

                anyway, there's not enough private land around me to get to trespass as much as I'd like. i guess that's for the best. i have illegally stealth camped plenty when riding trains or roadtripping and a few nights on backpacking trips which passed through resorts or old ranches adjacent to public land. it is really funny to walk for days in the desert without seeing a soul then wake up somewhere like lajitas to all the golfer buttholes on their morning jog (pic related).

                Simple fact about "ownership" of anything is that you have to be able to defend it.

                Ultimately you own nothing, you are permitted your land by the Government. They can take it from you whenever they want.

                You only own what you can defend. You're trying to hold onto a fantasy that isn't real, you are like a teenager with your parent's car, pretending you actually do own that BMW to impress a girl.

                Those barriers prevent morons like you from becoming successful. Why? Because guy who can pick up biggest rock, isn't a good standard of government.
                The only reason every woman you've ever met isn't a victim of rape or every man isn't enslaved or entrapped is because of these rules.
                So yes, if the rules are I pay the big gang a fee for a plot. I get to shoot people who don't. Why? Because you're the type to pick up rocks and rape women. I may not own my BMW but my loaned car, with my insurance bill paid and each debt taken care of. Is the worlds new version of being better than others. In the monkey world PrepHole likes to pretend they are a part of, I know for fact the average height isn't 6'4". Which in la-la forest land let's me rape your wife, kill your kids and eat your brains for desert.
                Pay your debts, own a gun, kill those that think they above the agreed upon culture. You're never free you frick, freedom comes from within. That's what God fearing means. There's always an oppresser, especially in the natural world.

                Maybe, but here on PrepHole I don't think we're talking about homeless mountain man type squatters. The thread is about stealth camping, so most of us are just talking about setting up camp for a night or two in a nice secluded spot where you aren't supposed to be.

                I basically only obey bag limit laws, don't litter, and stick to dead blow down trees for firewood and axemanship practice (which is usually the best firewood anyway). I don't give a shit about anything else and if some "authority" or "property owner" confronted me in the middle of the woods he'd die of lead poisoning real fast.

                The type of people to squat on private land are not the type of people who would carry a gun, either because they're too young, too poor, too liberal, or have too many domestic violence charges to be able to buy one, or they realize that being caught trespassing while carrying a firearm increases the severity of their charges tenfold. And even barring all else, they're not the type of person to actually practice with their firearm.

            yes I have in wales, most of the uk is gay farmland but they have nice bits of nature hidden on them so I sneaked on and camped there, left no mess or evidence, never got caught as the property was massive. Nice chunk of wood, very large and no one else there, hidden in a valley.

      Only thing that makes it different from camping on public land is hiding fires becomes more important; if you’re caught it can make the difference between whether the landowner gives a damn or not. Always extinguish and cover ashes before sleeping.

    I've only camped a few times on public ground. All the best spots I've visited were on private grounds with amazing views. I don't care about trespassing because I'm not trashing it nor really disturbing anyone + I don't want to pay for public shitspots.

    Private property is only legitimate if it's someone's yard and you can see their house or something. If it's undeveloped woods then I don't give a shit who owns it. As far as I'm concerned it's public property until you actually clear it and build something.

    Yes, because I'm in England and a lot of green space is private property. I stealth camp in the type of woodlands that you'll see nestled between fields, owned by farmers. I keep a low profile, only have small fires at night, leave no trace of my presence obviously. I've never been moved on because I choose my spots well, but I have no anxieties because if they approach me I'll just give them good energy and say I'll be gone within 30 minutes.

      It's not exactly the wilderness but it gives me a place to sleep peacefully listening to birdsong, read and smoke my pipe, things like that. If see a place I really like l'll manage the nature in the area around my camping area -- taking down spindly overcrowding trees so that when I return it's even nicer.

      The way i see it, a copse of trees like picrel, out in the middle of the fields, is sort of my own unnofficial garden of eden. I am the one who ever goes into those woods since the £5 I left stuck to a tree remains there 2 years later. So though I don't own the deeds, it is still just as much my doninion for my innocent pursuits as it it ever was.

                The only places in Europe outside Scandinavia and Russia with any significant forest cover are the little southwestern corner of Germany and the Alps, and the only reason those are still forested is the the terrain is so extreme that it's uninhabitable. I guess there's also that strip in northern Romania that looks okay. Western Europe is 99% deforested. Look at Maine on Google Earth. That is what Europe would look like without humans.

                Okay, so Romania, Bulgaria, Poland, Belarus, and Russia all have old trees. You realize that still leaves the entirety of Western Europe and almost all of Central and Southern Europe? I'm not saying there's no good nature in Europe (I'm new to this thread, not that other guy), especially around the various major mountain ranges. But the state of nature in Europe is genuinely quite sad. It's understandable in a historical context, of course, but that doesn't make it much less of a shame.

      Not sure how I feel about Japan. On the one hand it's even worse than Europe in it's draconian control of the population and basically forbidding all forms of outdoor activities other than just walking in trails. On the other hand it's one of the most sparsely inhabited and heavily forested countries in the world. On satellite it basically looks like Vermont. I'm sure it would be fairly easy to get away with off-grid living.

    This board is going downhill so shittily, 76 posts and maybe 5 are actually sharing experiences related to stealth camping on private land instead of just debating it abstractly.

    In my experience, stealth camping both across the eastern US and in central Europe, the best move is the classic "get in late and leave early" technique. Show up to your spot right as it's getting dark, and leave early in the morning. Obviously leave no trace. In general I like public land, but larger parks/hiking areas in rural areas rather than city parks or highway medians or some of the crazy stuff people do in youtube videos. I've never been bothered by anybody about it. It can be depressing in non-scandinavian Europe how illegal it is to wild camp, but it's so worth it to be outside of shitbox paid campsites. Just stay out of view, don't stay long, and have fun. And don't listen to the doomers who say there's no PrepHole in yurop

      On a slightly related note, camping outside of designated spots used to be pretty doable in the European west if you claimed to be doing the Santiago. A buddy of mine hung a multi-lingual (English-German-French-Spanish) pamphlet on his tent saying "I'm a pilgrim walking to Santiago de Compostella; I will be gone the next day" and was even offered showers and meals by locals now and then. In one instance, he camped right in the village square and was left unbothered. Granted, he was actually going to Santiago on a genuine pilgrimage and this was two decades ago. You might not have that much luck now, but who knows.

          Yeah, this upsets me to no end too, but that's not even all of it. I'd argue we have inalienable rights to be in nature, catch our own food and erect something resembling a roof over our head, but as you well know these things are limited or restricted in some way or another throughout the western world.

          That's a smart idea, but really only would work in Iberia and SW France. I try to make my plan A "don't be seen", but if you have to be seen having a tag saying you're only there one night is smart. One nice thing about Europe in general is that backpacking between cities (usually flying/taking trains and staying in hostels rather than camping) is such a big thing that no one looks twice at someone walking around cities/towns with a huge backpacking pack. In most of the US people would assume you're a hobo or something if you're carrying a bag like that outside of a hiking trail.

            I basically only obey bag limit laws, don't litter, and stick to dead blow down trees for firewood and axemanship practice (which is usually the best firewood anyway).

            Thing is homeless people are so common in the USA that large packs end up being just as inconspicuous. There's multiple obviously homeless people who come into the store I work regularly with huge frame packs with blankets and stuff lashed to them and security doesn't even give them a second glance. My EDC pack is rather large because I have a panic attack if I'm separated from my tools but nobody ever looks at me or tells me to leave it at the desk or anything.

              I agree that homeless people are common, but if people think you're homeless you'll be treated like you're homeless, which means suspicion and getting kicked out of places. In EU people with big backpacks are usually seen as college students out having an adventure as opposed to in the US where they're seen as hobos or panhandlers or whatever unless you're in a trail town. I've lived in and backpacked in both places so I've seen a bit of both experiences.

      Only places it gets complicated is if there's animals nearby because dogs and shit, but you should just be non moronic and check before you set up camp

    When I was a kid my home was near the woods, and one day my brother and I found where it looked like somebody had been sleeping in a thicket. We showed our dad and he figured it might be a homeless guy. I think he would sneak in at night to sleep. Sometimes we’d find during the day where he’d hang his socks and underwear in some branches to dry. My dad would get freaked out by a lot of things concerning our property but for whatever reason this time, he said, “Ehh… let’s leave the poor guy alone. Looks like he’s just trying to find a safe place to sleep.” This went on for a few months. He never left any trash or made any noise. We never even saw him. Then one day those socks stopped hanging out to dry and I guess the guy moved on. I’ve always kinda wondered what happened to him.
