Drive is about 8 hours exactly. Definetly can make the trip over a weekend. I was supposed to go this weekend but I have the girls now so I can't get away. I am hoping to go in a few weeks. Would be nice to get away and relax! If you are up for a road trip and a weekend of camping let me know!
Depends on where the cameras are. Both of mine are along a fenceline now where the farmer across the fence drives by on his tractor or atv daily. So if I wanted, I could check daily, but normally every 3 - 4 days. The deer here are used to trucks, tractors, and atvs going through and around the property.
