Right here in the RV.net forums, under the Public Camping and Boondocking area, is a sticky that defines the different terms.
Proper use of terms reduces the chance of being misunderstood.
I do not consider random postings on this website to be the lawful authority on any terms. The term boondocking is user defined, not only varying between different regions of North America, but from person to person within any given region. There is no standard definition of the terms dry camping, boondocking, camping, or any other terminology used here. The term boondocking is itself plagiarized, just as there is no general agreement on what constitutes the slang term boondocks -- borrowed from the Tagalog language for a mountainous area.
Not worth anyone getting their knickers in knot over. And no reason for anyone to be the terminology police.
