What weird stuff have you run into in the woods?

Stuff I've found:

Old structural foundations/chimneys
Abandoned camps
LARPers
People hunting for some kind of plants or something. It wasn't pot, but I figured I'd give them a wide berth and leave them be.

I like the hint about non native plants as evidence for an old homestead!

same, it seems very common

i leave these a lot of places that i set up camp. These two are from last year, built a couple days apart:

retirned to find the first one gone so i built a new one:

usually leave a few little bits of food too like cashews or peanuts thrown in the four cardinal directions from where i'm sitting, always leave something for the little people, especially if your spending a lot of time at their site and inconveniencing them

and like others have said i've found lots of foundations and some intact but obviously no longer used houses and cabins, always a strange feeling, wish i still had pictures of those to share

Is this like a Scandinavian tradition? It is pretty cute.

Coral fungus, there's a lot that grows around here. Not sure if it's edible.

I think it will cause severe gastric upset but I don't think it's super dangerous.
