Hi Pieren,
You are correct for most bush campsites where you stay mainly for the
beauty of the environment. I have mapped those myself only in cases other
reasons existed to map than. However, places you select for security or for
availability of amenities you want to have on the map. This will be more of
an issue in Africa than in Europe, but in countries without a camping
culture you need this. In my earlier mail I have given a number of examples
of such places that we visited.
