Locals outraged by 'unmanageable' illegal wild campers: 'It looks like a festival'
 
Wild camping is something nature lovers have been doing to connect with the outside world for centuries.

Setting up tents in the countryside at non-designated campsites allows you to wake up in extremely remote places, allowing for a sense of calm, peace, and unparalleled views. 
 
But in some parts of the world, the practice is illegal. This is usually to ensure the protection of green spaces or to avoid the disturbance of wildlife.

The Lake District in England is one such place, with the area's National Park Authority saying camping is "not technically permitted anywhere in the Lake District" unless you have landowners' permission

I hope the locals don't think any politicians much give a d*mn about their problems.  They're just Americans and not the key to future political power like illegal aliens. :whistle:
