I have the worst luck with trail cams.  Years past I've had 2 Camtrakkers destroyed by bears.  Eventually I got out of the trail cam business because of replacing cams, batteries, film, and film developing.  This year for Christmas my kids bought me a digital Moultrie I40.  I set the camera out and at the very first location here's what I got.

The bear busted the mounting strap tabs off the back but all else was ok.  I beefed up the mounting tabs by bolting on an aluminum bracket for future use.

Oh, I had a scent dripper in front of the camera with coyote urine.

Enjoy.    Thanks,   bootmud

seems early for bear to be moving, what's the average temp been down your way ?   Of course they all dont follow the rules of hybernatin' .  53* on jan 8, I need to move a few hours south  :laf:
