Shows how far the misrepresentation of a freedom camper goes. there is nothing in the Freedom camping Act that excludes the back country, in fact the 'with 200 metres of a motor vehicle accessible area' could be anywhere reachable by an Motorcycle of the trail variety. Crazy yet we have everything being targeted at those in RV's while conveniently forgetting many others - there are many excluded who do not even camp in the back country ie, cycle tourists , some river users etc.. The use of certified self containment as a restriction when only a minority of the campers determined by the Act can comply with it with must raise eyebrows at every level, unfortunately those seen as an authority continue to push an interpretation which is incorrect and has been since the Act was created in 2011.
