We often find them in conservation areas too. <br /><br />As this forest is private property the leave no trace in the form of a shelter is not a problem. We are very blessed to have this forest right across the road and it is owned by our neighbours who live up the road. They have allowed us free access to their property for foraging, hiking, and enjoying nature. <br /><br />Thanks, it was a ton of fun, and I can't wait for next year!Kim https://www.blogger.com/profile/08476209107377395745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501164039766203202.post-10235074113976591952015-08-07T00:06:33.330-04:002015-08-07T00:06:33.330-04:00I really love finding forts in the woods.
