Anyone hang their cameras high in the tree?

I used this one and have picked up a couple just like it, but different brand. They are cheap and easy to adjust.

That's what I use and they work great.
 
I understand the height limitations with proximity triggered cameras. What I use are time lapse (Day 6) cameras set for 5 sec. intervals. With these at 20’ it gives a broader field of view with no trigger issues.

It takes a picture every 5 seconds for 10 days straight? That's a ton of pictures

My older one is good for 7 days. The newer one is good for up to 4 months. Yes, lots of pictures, it takes a while to view them but the software allows fast forward and another feature that stops on movement as it runs through them. The new one also has a “delay start” feature. You can set the camera in place and program for it to start up to 45 days in the future.

They can be programmed to begin at daylight and stop at dark and set from 5 sec. to any interval one wishes. Also it can be set to run only at certain times during each day.

I put my Browning trail cameras about 12 feet up on video mode and it works great for me.

What time lapse camera do you recommend? I'd like to get 3-4 and set them nice and high on a few roads and pipelines.

To me time lapse makes much more sense than motion activated. They cover more area, and I honestly have 0 interest in nighttime pics. The odds of connecting with a nocturnal buck down here are just so incredibly low. I feel people get false hopes and waste time chasing will-o-wisps. At least I do.
 
Well I never used to but I picked up a new property which the landowner stats no one has permission to hunt nor have they ever. Well, I'm out scouting the property and found 4 stands and an old ground blind. So I guess I'll be hanging them up high now. I like that mount posted above, think I'll use it.
 
I like those! Do you glue that stuff on?

It works better if you cover it with camo duck tape first not Gorilla tape then hot glue the bark on. This way it’s easier to take off if you want to change the look of it
