Funny, it really pizzes me off to see various litter in the backcountry, but a gear cache never does.
It's not uncommon to cache water in the AZ backcountry, but it does suck to hump 5 gallons of water into your secret place and find 2 other water caches ...

The problem with this is that some leave the materials in the bush which in due course become useless litter and the plastic will not biodegrade for many centuries.
I have found this in some of BCs most remote wilderness and finest hunting grounds, the legendary Shulaps Range west of Lillooet, once the premier Cali. Bighorn area, as well as deep into The Purcell Wilderness Conservancy between the East and West Kootenays and even the very remote headwaters of Chlotapecta Creek, fine Stones and Elk-Moose country in NE BC.
I have packed out SO much of this that I now look askance upon such camps, but, I do "get" the appeal of them. Boo-fugkin'-hoo. Travis

That's what I was thinking. Some poach with bolt action rifles too.

Well, leaving stuff like this is actually illegal here in BC and in Alberta; we would fly heli-patrols to check if the outfitters had left tent frames and tarps, etc.
The concern is that we still have remote wilderness here and wish to protect it for our future citizens to enjoy as we have, so, we have certain regulations to that effect.
YMMV, different cultures, different nations and different ways of doing things.

That's funny. Do you have regulations on packing out toilet paper too? What with your wilderness and cultural differences and all.

Plastic and wood framing will biodegrade mighty fast in a wildfire. And it won't take centuries for that to occur.
I'm all about leaving things as I found them, but lets be real.
