Since my wife and I started a family in 2022 (two young ones now), scouting time has been incredibly difficult to come by. In the years past, I would spend alot of days in the high county June - August finding bucks, bulls and bears. Come hunting season, I always felt pretty confident that I would at least get an opportunity or two. However, the last couple season, the lack of scouting and its effect on my season has become glaring obvious. I knew I needed to change things up a little or risk my freezer looking a little barren and that's where the cell camera came into play.

I spoke with @robby denning regarding the Moultrie Mobile Edge 2 Pro (see his ongoing thread here) and he had nothing but great things to say about them. I recently received four and plan to get them out in the field here as soon as the snow melts off a little more.

I had originally planned to place them in Eastern Washington for Mule Deer and Whitetails, but with our new "no baiting" rule that just passed, my plan wasn't going to work out as well as I thought. I have pivoted and now plan to run them in the alpine and on a migration corridor and try and catch a blacktail worthy of hunting this year. If anyone has any tips, I am all ears!

I will be getting them all set up on the app in the following week or two and will post my progress/pictures as they come about.

Hopefully you will follow along!

Update, I actually ended up drawing a tag in Washington for November. I am planning a trip to my unit in August to get the lay of the land and set the cameras up then.
 
Getting familiar with these cams in prep for my late season tag. Set up is incredibly easy. It was taking pics in about 5 minutes from taking it out of the box.

Pictures showed up in my gallery almost instantly and I don’t have that great of coverage at my house (Verizon). I was pleased with the speed.

this is what I've been wondering about.

So by "connected to onX" what does that mean? It's just a pin on the onX map or something more?

So far I’ve learned that when it’s connected to onX, it’s linked to the “trail camera” tab on your OnX dashboard. This will be really helpful when you have multiple cameras deployed. Everything is one spot and you don’t have to go back and forth between apps and it eliminates confusion on what pictures are for which camera location

OK I see that link now.

So when you push that link in onX, does it bring up all the different camera pics, or can you view one camera's pics seperate from the others? or another way to put it, can you filter to view just one cam?
