out of sight and set up camp for the night? what some would
consider 'stealth' camping, legally permitted on public lands.
i was not suggesting relying on conservation department
established free primitive sites or rest areas.
i meant just find a secluded spot and pull off the road when
you get tired. a campground "within a day's ride" won't
help when it's 5pm and you're ready to stop.
