Rural folks - School me on homesteading safety
For simplicity - assume you just bought a house on 20 acres in an area that doesn't see much snowfall. There is a dirt trail that runs 100y to a (not busy) county road. The property is mostly wooded and overgrown. There is no fence at all.
Starting with day 1 - the moving truck just left and you are all unpacked.

Cameras? Where? What kind? Game cameras hooked up to cell networks with phone notifications? At the gate? Ring cameras around the house?
Gate (automatic/manual)?
Lighting? Motion activated or on all night?
Fencing? Barbed wire?
Why do the loudest do the least?
