I have a national park 6 hours drive from where I live where I love to go hiking. This year I'm planning on making a permanent settlement there, off the beaten track and hidden from rangers. It's going to be as unnoticeable as possible to avoid curious souls from creeping about. I'm thinking about using a natural cave formation and widen it out using rocks to create walls, then cover it with moss so it looks natural and becomes as stable as possible.

I will also make depots around the park where I place dry goods and spices as a backup in case my place gets raided by people or animals, or if I get stuck in bad weather while out hiking.

If I can get the place set up in time I plan to winter there and attempt to do some fur trapping and use the paleolithic fall pits to hunt reindeer.

The thing that worries me is not if I can succeed or not. I've done several similar projects (although all of them during the summer season). I'm worried that I'll be prosecuted later on if I decide to write a book or make a film about the project. How likely is it that the park officials will react, and how should I deal with it or prevent it? Any ideas?
