Hi back Gail,
	I guess that the point that I was trying to make (humorously) was that
while we "skulk" around woodlands,  It is not like the old days when you
could walk through the woods with out too many worries from other forms
of mankind.  In todays world you must be concerned with a criminal
element as well.  Domestically produced drugs are sometimes the largest
cash crop in many rural counties.  And that element will go to extreme
ends to protect that crop.  (Booby traps and worse).  They are even using
State and National park land thinking that their crop wont be disturbed. 
I once saw a report about how much illegal hemp is grown on the
mountainsides of West Virginia, Maryland,and Virginia.
