How to build a good hidden camp site
First of all is finding the right spot, start of by looking for a dark shadowy area of low trees and bushes if possible. when building or putting up your sleeping area make sure you are putting it in a way that its frame and all of that irregular shapes and keeping it low to the ground. geometric shapes will catch the eye easily in the bush, so do make sure to keep the shapes out of shape if that makes sense.
Laying Plants and leaves over the roof in a irregular pattern will also be more effective. after you finished setting up your shelter. after you have completed that its a good ideas to walk around your camp site area a bit making sure you covered all your tracks, the little details do matter if youve been collecting fire wood and cutting or snapping of sticks making sure you are rubbing dirt over the ends so its not so exposed and bare but its best to get fire food from another area leaving foot
printed in a specific direction thats going away from your site. and when walking around also Making sure you havent left anything lying around. Another good way of covering your tracks is paying attention to the way the leaves are facing, in the forest leaves grow down so if youve brushed up against leaves or disrupted them while building or walking its gonna be a dead give away so making sure to minimize that asmuch as possible by just repositioning them to look natural if your in a situation where your being followed and need to take caution in covering your tracks. Do not use fires either because that may also be a giveaway and leaves a trace that you where there that could be a hard task to get rid of enough that someone walking through area wouldnt notice, if the temperatures are low and you do need a fire then dig a firehole i will do a post on those in the future. and always make sure you have a plan to escape atleast 4 plans because the first plan barely survives first contact so always keep backup plans just incase. PACE is a good planning
method to, i will make a post indetail about those in the future to. If you have any questions on anything i mightve missed leave a comment or message to me and ill be sure to reply.
There are 2 types of camoflauges
disruptive camoflauge and mimic camoflauge
disruptive is pretty much when your trying to look like nothing
mimic camoflauge on the other hand is when your trying to look like something.
Out in wilderness the most important factors are stuff like breaking up your silhouette, irregular patterns, making sure your not casting a shadow, covering your tracks, moving at about quarter of your normal pace to observe more of your surroundings and have more of a situational awareness. Also making sure nothings shining on your personnel as that is a dead giveaway to people that you may be following or getting followed by.
Little tricks like rubbing bit of dirt over your skin so its wont stand out as much or moving with the sound of the forest to reduce chances of being heard walking could just save your life.
