We have lost $1000.00 in blinds and close to that in stands...even chained tree was cut down so lost best tree also...
haven't lost a camera yet...some we have a well hidden camera watching the main camera...
We write on camera that cameras are password protected and useless to anyone without password ...which they all are..
Now with cameras coming out with GPS locate...any thief will be a fool to touch cameras...I predict a thief is going to get hurt here in Alberta soon as there are so many ethical hunters very angry....
The thing that got me most riled up is when someone stole the folding Primos bow hanger and coated pack hooks out of one of stands...wasn't the fact the dink stole them it was because he was obviously using the stand as he had the gull to leave a note carved in the tree stating "I should be thankful he didn't steal the stand..." and that was most likely due to it being so far in the bush and in a walk in area only...

Just cause a stand is on public land ...it is still personal property ...
