Thieves at campsite!

Thieves hit our campsite in the middle of the night at Mission Tejas State Parke in East Texas this weekend. They stole a Yeti cooler and 2 campchairs and some beer in the middle of the night. Guess we are going to have to buy some bike locks and lock everything up at night from now on. Anyone have this happen to them? Share your stories. Never had this happen to us camping.

  • We have never had a campsite theft in 50 years of camping .
    We mainly camp in Oregon and often are gone during the day .
    On the lake , taking a hike , occasional bike ride .
    Actually , I am more surprised we have not been thieved .
    But then I covet your Yeti cooler .
    I use one of the metal clad coleman coolers as a raccoon proof container .

    You are lucky that is all they got.
