Theft
I am always amazed by the amount of worry folks express about their gear being stolen. How many have actually, personally had something stolen while camping? Please restrict yourselfs to person...

40 years of camping,here's my list:
Pack of hotdogs out of cooler by Racoon (tent)
Pack of hotdogs off picnic table by Racoon while putting stuff away (TT)
Pack of marshmallows off the chair right next to me by Racoon.(TT)
And in my youth, bag of pot by unknown source (suppose it could have been Racoons since they didn't take my wallet and left my money) (tent)
Over the years I've had nothing but help from my fellow campers. Have had patio furniture put under my awning during storms, have had my awning lowered or retracted in the past. Have come back to my tent zipped shut and one time in S.D. in the Badlands during a hail storm had a MH camper drop my tent down to protect my tent poles.
