I hosted for the USFS & NPS for six years with very few theft problems.

Here's the total list of everything reported stolen during that time:

1 small cooler with half melted ice in it (it sloshed so they thought beer was in it at 2 AM & it was a long way to town plus all the places were already closed)

2 warm beers (3 teenagers had been dropped off by an adult for the weekend & I think the kids got thirsty)

1 cell phone left charging in a public restroom by a German tourist (it was plugged in right below a sign saying NOT to do it)

I was always amazed at Bryce by the tens of thousands of dollars of equipment left lying around every day.

Not once in the 14 years that I've used my TM have I heard of anyone even trying to enter someone else's RV or tent.
