I agree. Any movement in areas outside your normal everyday zone , is a risk.
The stranger is always the one singled out for special treatment , or is the one who gets the blame when things start going wrong.
If you're BOL is any distance away then you should really be getting yourself known around the area , the closer you integrate the better chance you will have of co-operation with the locals.
I dont intend going far...and I'm doing my best being seen walking/fishing 'regularly' around and near the area , which is sparsely populated anyway...in this manner I can pick up local info , the lay of the land , and other useful things whilst appearing to be a seemingly benign regular wanderer.
Google earth / maps is perfect to put points of interest you've noticed into a more visual and quickly identifiable way.
Build up your knowledge of your area if you have any distance to travel , it could save you !
Being hidden in plain sight should never be underestimated.

Trying very hard not to be paranoid.....and it aint getting easier.
