I had my pickup stolen one time when I was out hunting.... then I realized I parked it farther down the road.

But seriously, I've thought about what I'd do if I caught someone stealing stuff from camp or breaking in my truck. If they are stupid enough to do that, they might be stupid enough to shoot back at a warning shot. I've decided that I'm going to do everything I can to avoid any shooting. Because once that starts, either I'm dead or I've had to unalive someone, and I'm not too excited to do that either.

I'm not surprised. Though not backcountry, I've had several tree stands and cameras stolen while bear baiting in N Id. It always surprises me because it generally has to be other hunters. Hound guys are the worst. N Id scum bags are just as bad as anywhere.

Wonder just how far in and away from trails this truly was? It has surprised me to see guys here in CO setting up camps right off a busy hiking trail. I'm not saying that shifts the blame or anything, it still takes a shitty person to steal from someone else. But, I have always made sure to set my camps up in areas well away from traffic.

That sucks! I’ve never had anything major stolen but did have a small cheap John boat stolen a few yrs ago. My fault, I left it beside a back river channel over night…
And this year I had a trail camera stolen as well.
What I don’t understand is how in the world do people use stolen stuff and ever feel good about it?? Talk about a seared conscience!

They aren’t built like us. They don’t care that they stole it. I stole a lollipop as a little kid and felt so bad about it I couldn’t ever imagine stealing anything again.
