I'd say bad idea. Unless you want a troop of boy scouts with binoculars wandering around your grow site.... then I'd say go for it. And 30 acres is nothing, a troop can hike every inch of that in afternoon exploring....
Looks like a good spot. That grass will be taller than you come summer time. You would have to almost walk right into your plants to find them.
But that being said I'm not sure what the boys scouts do on there little excursions. And also if you do get caught how the local government would feel about someone growing on land that is used by children. My guess is they would be pretty hard on you.

As long as you're not a pole-smoking rump-ranger they probably won't mind.......
Gotta be proactive...
Become a scout leader!
Maybe you can sneak off and tend to your plants during a camping trip. If discovered, you're just the scout leader disgusted by what scum bag pot head would plant on land used by children.

I know half a dozen eagle scouts who toke. That is on one hand. On the other hand are the politics of the higher ups who suppress things like homosexuals being accepted as Eagle Scouts (related article today in the Washington Post) and, in my mind, would without a doubt play morality police man. I have not yet met a boy scout who is loyal to the bureaucracy - but that does not mean they are not out there.. or that some troop leader is not looking for a promotion. Tough call you have there.
also your thread reminded me of an snl sketch: canteen boy and the Scoutmaster... link: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7msdp_saturday-night-live-canteen-boy-and_fun#.UWhfnUqyF9k

my two cents, that's the type of place bird watchers with high power binocs would hang out. The wood duck houses will probably be replaced soon. I agree the local court would through the book at you for growing their if you did get caught. good luck if you try but I would listen to the small voice that's already warning you, why else would you be asking. If you were positive it was a good spot would you have posted this question? Are you willing to risk your freedom ,Jails a bad place to be telling yourself, I knew better!

Since you've posted so much asking about this spot, my .02
I'd move on.
30 acres is NOT a big tract of land and a "huge" mountain on the other side of the swamp is not a barrier to access for a group like Scouts who are all about the outdoors and exploring. If anything that huge mountain top probably offers a pretty darn good view of the entire swamp and your lovely plants. For that matter, Scouts offer merit badges for tracking, birdwatching etc and probably spend several days scouring the land for animal tracks in the mud to identify. Imagine their surprise (and interest) when they find a boot print in the mud, a little pile of perlite from a bag that tore open as you were carrying it in or a torn grow bag that an inquisitive bear dragged from your spot out into the open.
If you want a challenge with poor chance of success I'd plant there, but otherwise you might be better off somewhere else. Go remote, really remote.

You know my opinion already on thisone Pn'P, but how about this: Just put one tube and camo it well with dirt.
Ditch some auto flowering seeds on it, and see what happens?
No expectations of a harvest, No pulling males, No anything at all.
Come back late in summer to collect seeds off the yellowing stalks.
I mean, just to see if there was a chance for it to go unnoticed or not.
If all goes fine... then next year you could make up your mind and pull the males...
Just a thought.

I think that's a good way to go too Pn'P
Where I live it's easy as this is a rather sparsely populated area.
All kinds of forest industry in here, pretty much everywhere.
My personal opinion is that forestry should be outlawed & our country go bankrupt.^^
How can they provide those dirty disgusting pot growers with such an easy opportunity to get away with their criminal activity?
Maybe they are working together? a secret conspiracy between forestry & guerilla farmers?
Way to easy for them dirty hippies this way. We must eliminate them all together!
Without forestry, there would be no outdoor weed as abundant and as easy to produce as they do now!
(satire)
But okay, up till 25 years ago I still lived in Germany, Holland & Belgium.
Rather densely populated area's so to say.
But also then was I able to find good spots almost right under ppls noses.
You got to think with other ppls brains and look for clues.
If I were to drive around in any of afore mentioned countrys, I'd just looked for places where ppl are not likely to go.
In holland I used to poach with windhounds a lot. I knew the area's of interest very well, and was always up and running at night with a spot light.
Where 2,3,or 4 properties come toghether, there's oft a 'neutral' zone that noone takes care of, or places that are just too wet for farming like your scout swamp.
Forest edges.
Around Industrial area's, either abandoned or active ones, or ones that are under constructrion. (they usually seem to be always under construction, so go to a part of the site that looks attractive but not endangered of sudden activity.)
There are always places where ppl have no interest to go, and there is always a different logic to it.
Contemplate the palet of different logic and pick the ones that makes most sense.
You can grow right next to a high way if need to, or on places where are cat tails, reefer, bramble or nettle.
On the banks of river beds, ditches and canals can be interesting too.
I once grew on a spot close to a colony of bees hives in Belgium.
I knew their owner would only be interested in his hives, and locals for sure would not have the guts to go near. ( But okay, you got a bee fobia/intolerance too right? damn man, it's only bees pfff ! ) lol
Close to that same place I had an other spot too... > Behind a prarie where there were walking about 20 Belgium Bulls looking like they were on streroids. lol
To make it to the spot I had to cross the prarie with bulls first. My dogs would distract them a bit so I could walk right trough them. Calm beast they were as a matter of fact.
Some pair of Clydesdales however would have killed me if it wasn't for my dogs that day. Damn, these beast like to play & show off hey^^, lol (along a river bed in Holland)
But okay, It doesn't necessarily always have to be thàt epic. PPl follow roads rather then to jump over a ditch and explore... > So that's what you got to do instead.^^
If you got time, maybe dig up the extended threads from 'Julian'. This guy had the same eye as I have for the right spots.
He's been a very 'famous' urban grower here on IC (or was he on OG back then? I don't remember.), who only had one spot ever ripped out of several hundereds.
NB. When I checked if I had his nick right, nothing popped up...
Maybe someone else who knows who I am talking about could be willing to fill in the blancs on 'Julian'?
