Famous last words. When you have and area that the trees have been cut chances are you are going to get someone to come by sooner or later.

While there is a chance, I don't put up a camera unless I'm AT LEAST 1 mile from the road and up a steep steep slop or down in a deep canyon. The chances are very very slim. The area pictured was only thinned and it was at least 5 years ago and you can't tell until you've started hiking down the slope.

 If someone puts in all that effort and stumbles across my specific location and they steal it so be it. I feel pretty confident that won't happen.

I think anyone who puts a trailcam up without any type of metal box is crazy.

I have never gotten a single pic of a two legged creature with any of my cams.

But that didn't mean my cams were safe. I've had two cams ripped off tree's by Bears.

my buddy put one up on the back section of his own property about 200 yards from his house and had it stolen.
