There is no requirement to leave a cabin locked or unlocked, strictly up to the trapper. I leave mine open for no other reason than if it's locked, somebody will probably do damage to get in. If it's open and they want to make a coffee or a bowl of soup, they can help themselves. Same thing, just use respect and don't steal from the trapper. Everything he has there he needs and most of us travel many miles to get there. Finding out we're missing required tools, etc., well, I'm sure you get the picture. There is a lot of work that goes into maintaining a cabin in the middle of nowhere.
