If you had, as I have, :tongue3:
found a treasure (Site) in this hostile environment, would you forget it
OR!
Would you just "push on" with the "recovery" ? :hello2:



PS...I'm still taking names of anyone who would like to be a part of the "RECOVERY" :thumbsup:

I'm actually surprised at how well a camp is left alone out in the woods or desert. I've been camping everywhere in the state, including many times in the Coronado Monument area that is a very heavy 'illegals' trail. There isn't a single shady tree that doesn't have garbage under it from a visit, yet I've never encountered a nefarious soul, or had my camp raided. I have seen daily evidence of passage thru the night.
BTW, the drug runner angle isn't such a worry as they aren't any more armed than the the familys.

I never pack up my kitchen stuff or hide food from anything but the sun, so it's not like I'm not an easy target.
It could be the obvious, the vehicles I park scream "man with gun" , but I am still surprised.

Don't get me wrong, I despise the illegal activity, have no respect for it at all, But I really haven't seen the problem. it's my guess, that as we become more and more 'diverse', it's just a matter of time till we start seeing a bit f camp maraudings.

You're out a lot Cpn, any encounters where you called law enforcement?

drug runners in your area must be different than the ones along the Yuma an mexico border ....these guys pack serious fire power an 9 times outa 10 its fully automatics.seen alot of families come threw an get picked up but never seen them with weapons .not saying it dont happen tho.
