Found it a bit down the hill from where I left it. A molten lump.
Damn.

One of the more frustrating ones was thinking I uploaded all the pictures so I deleted it from the card only to realize that it didn't save. :bash:

I have forgotten to turn it on, forgot the sd card, not paid attention to the direction it was pointing and it was right into the sun all day long (hundreds of pics that you couldn't see). But my personal best was driving all the way out to where the cams were to check them only to realizes I forgot the key to unlock them. :bash:
D. All of the above!

Yep, all of the above. Plus going to check a cam that I already pulled. Luckily I was already in the area for another cam.

Hate to revile this, while clearing grass, branches or anything that could trigger the camera before turning it on ( I thought) (first camera). I paused to take a leak, guess what it was on. My buddies huddled around when I put the first SD chip in my computer and to my horror it was me in my glory. :chuckle: OMG I will not show any SD Cam cards without proof reading them.
:hello: I was just out shooting my bow and I remembered doing the exact same thing. :chuckle:

I have forgot to turn it on, had a limb above it break off and hang in front of one, forgotten keys to unlock them....

Vandeman, did you know that you probably can retrieve the data from your SD card, even though you "deleted" all of the files? I have been through this before---there is free software available to retrieve that data from your card.

After pissing your scent everywhere you want critters to come did you get any deer or elk on cam?

I've done most of the above but my biggest screw up is putting my camera where dirty thieves could find it 3 different times... :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash:Don't ya wish you could catch them in the act? Now that would make for some cool photos. You beatin the crap outa some low lifes ! Hate thieves. Sorry about your losses.

Don't forget using a card that is too big for the cam to support. Not a huge problem anymore, but it used to be.Yup, forgot about that one.
