How low is this.

It’s hard to believe that there are people out there that would stoop to such depths. I wonder how they would feel if the same was done to them.

That is just amazing. I hate seeing young people making their way being afflicted like that. Don’t give up boys! I’d be happy to throw them some old gear and maybe a fox trap or two if anybody knows them? I got broken into and lost a lot when I was younger. It sets you back a few paces.

One of the comments at bottom of article said they should of had gear insured.

Would an insurer even insure such gear in this situation? I have always assumed not. Comments on forum's such as this have always lead my to believe goods are only covered if behind lock and key, not in zipped up canvas.

& the comment from National Parks "however, people are reminded to secure their property at all times."

Right, so pack up your entire camp, take it with you, then set it all up again when you get back later on ???

I know he's onlu pushing Policy, but how about thinking before opening your mouth ::)

if I was on Facebook i’d ask that person what they have insured, because it obviously wouldn’t be a big deal then if I came around and stole it from them.

I imagine that if you could find someone to insure it, it would cost so much that you're better off just taking your chances.

A dog act, especially considering that it was snowing hard and could potentially be a life and death.

I've always had trust issues and its one of the reasons I went with a a camper on the ute and a RTT. I bloke I know on a now defunct forum came back from a day trip to find his camper trailer packed up and gone.

If I find my RTT gone, the car is probably gone and I'd be well screwed. :-[
