Thanks for the input,...will check into the lock option.We have a couple of these and for the price it is honestly hard to beat. Your not going to get the quality you would get with those expensive cameras, but it is a solid option especially for what you are looking to use them for. Have you ever considered buying a python lock for state land? Also, bring a climbing stick with you and hang your camera higher on state land and angle it down. Most people will not even see them and walk right by.
