I exclusively run camo cams and spray the mounts with a matte green paint. I’ve only had that one bear try to get one. My friend has camo ones and black ones and the black seem to get hit more by the bears. But that could be fixed with some camo paint.
I have no one else going through my spots.
One area where my friend and I have a few cams is a pretty popular trail and we wanted to see just how many people come through it. They are locals who come through nearly every day and they have never noticed the cams. My friend initially put them up without me and I did eventually see them when he took me to the spots, but that’s because I was looking for them and knew what to look for. If you weren’t looking for them, I don’t think you’d see them. So I’d say camo cameras and painted mounts are the way to go.
