I remember a time when any place you could car camp on public land was trashed out. But, at least around here (SW NM) things have changed. Now it's rare to see a trashed out camp site. A new generation of campers seems to have replaced their slob parents. I'm not sure why that has happened but I'm sure glad to see it. The camp sites I'm talking about are informal camp sites along the back roads. Places where people have been camping for hundreds of years. There are almost always rock fire rings, and some left over firewood, but rarely any trash. What's the official term the USFS/BLM uses? Disbursed camping? Things may be different in official campgrounds, but I rarely use those places.
