I want to know what you guys think of this. Dumping a single pack on a sight then being far away for long periods of time, that's obviously bad manners. But how about, and I've done this, getting to the sight you know you're going to take, throwing all your gear there, usually pretty obviously in the middle of the sight, and then going out fishing or exploring the lake some more. Basically just not getting to setting up your sight but having every intention of staying at the place you put your gear. When I've done this before I've been within sight, or at least almost within sight of the campsight. Am I being rude when I've done this or is what's being talked about as rude a different thing.
Just to clarify, I'm definetly not dropping a pack at each sight on a lake while looking for hte best one.
