In terms of safety how many people have been killed/hurt in Norcal fishing or hunting due to walking into a grow area?
The economics will need to change more for it to stop. CA has the most people and probably consumes the most pot but we also grow a crap more than we need to service illegal areas that still command high prices. (where the cartel comes in).
If possible use the buddy system and very accurate trail plan. Be safe.
