I don't know where you live, but in my layman understanding of the law the police has nothing on you if you just walk on land that is not immediately recognizable as belonging to someone (e.g. not fenced), and you don't damage anything that would obviously belong to someone (like trampling a field of grain).

Maybe the owner could come and rightly tell you to fuck off their land, maybe they could call the police and they could then say the same, but they can't fine you or anything. It's not a crime.

Yeah it's the same here afaik, as long as you have plausible deniability, but I found myself in a situation a couple hours ago in which my deniability wasn't very plausible due to all the warning signs I walked past 😅

Sounds like a fun excursion. What happened in the end?

Yeah talking to cops to explain your innocence is not a thing to do unless you've got active warrants or are currently top priority for the camps or something.

And also you shouldn't be talking to cops
