Douglas County Or. 2009 Digger packs is "Stuff" in,STASH leaves it. Goes back, "Everything,s "GONE".
Rockcreek,Or. Coquille River 2010 Digger leaves his stuff on the river, goes to Town. Comes back,"GONE"
(Campers in 100 ft.on both sides.)
Doles Bar Or.2011 Highbanker set-up. Digger leaves, comes back,you guessed it,"Gone"(Others Diggers in sight on both sides.)
Medford Or. 2013 Digger leaves his Dredge in the driveway. "Gone"
Every year there are countless stories of Diggers equipment being "Stolen" under one circumstance or another.
Most due to poor decisions, carelessness, a false attitude "It wont happen to ME" "Guess what"
Lets try to "STOP" Financing thieves with "YOUR STUFF".
"SUGGESTION" and I am sure there are other ways! "MARK " your equipment. No item is to small!
Elec. engraving tool, metal punch stamp, wood-burning tool, welders, camera etc.(Take pictures of your equipment.
You may need them for alerts or identification.
Perhaps engrave your last 4 number of your Dr Lic. & 4 numbers of your SS#.on "EVERYTHING METAL or wood. Every pump Lg.& sml. Mark the spot with brite paint,"WHY"? Increases the chance of a "Pawn-Shop" seeing it!
You can even mark any plastic item with the wood burning tool. Ink Mark your tents & shelters.
Weld these #,s on the of all your trailers, mark the site w/brite paint.
(Clubs or buddies have an "Identify Your Equipment" day & share the tools to do it with. Invite others, make a noise about. Let the word get around about what you are doing or have done. A thief has ears to. I think?
I don,t know about you? But even my screwdriver cost me "MONEY".
Good Luck this season guys & gals. Protect your stuff so you can!
PEACE JOY & PROSPOERTY &"Gold" to all.

More on topic...the other thing we can all do is to be very careful about buying used gear. Avoid anything where you can't confirm the proper ownership history!

Incribe your SS number or other ID in a concealed location on exspensive stuff. When stolen, tell only the law and certain other good local prospectors. If (when) stolen, watch for the "sale" and have trusted friends help watch for it. The bad guys will not see it coming! TTC

I would be wary on the SS number. Too much identity theft. Call this number if found or property of with a phone number perhaps.

The SS number is universal when law enforcement is on it. Other ID can be used. The idea behind the "hidden" location is what makes it work. Probably safer than the info on your computer, now-a-days. The sending out of stolen property signals makes much of the stuff "hide" for awhile, negating the idea of a hidden id. TC

Most police depts will tell you to mark your items as follows for EASY I.D. This way you're not putting your SSAN out there for anyone to get a a hold of. First initial/last initial/last four of SSAN. Put it someplace that it's NOT easy to spot right off the bat. Under a battery cover or some other easily accessible location for electronics or someplace a thief won't look for other items. Keep a list of all marked items and the location of the markings that you can give the cops in case you are ripped off.

The two things they say NOT to put on an item as I.D. are your complete SSAN OR your D.L. Number!!!!! Both can lead to identity theft.

THere used to be a company that made "Micro stamps" that would imprint your ID on just about any item and was small enough not to be easily noticed by thieves but could be read with a magnifying glass.

Always log down your serial #'s and make and model,,,without these #'s items cannot be entered into NCIC by law Enforcement.. NCIC is the National computer system for such things as stolen goods, where a stolen pump from say South Carolina can be checked in say Oregon an get an instant hit! All other #'s put on equipment is great for local identification, but not worth much out of local jurisdiction.

For the life of me I can't understand why anyone would leave their equipment behind. Your inviting thiefs to take it. I had to leave a custom 300 mag and my packframe with a pair of 15 x 60 Zeiss binoculars behind once. This was only because I was bleeding very badly and knew I had little time to get to Nogales, AZ to a hospital. I was hunting Coues Whitetail and my buddy had no clue I was in trouble. I did go back and recover my gear the next morning.
