Hell we know how to do it. It is up to them to figure out how to do it. We are not going to help with any more Illegals getting in. Yes I said ILLEGALS. They are not Immigrants, they are breaking our laws.

This should be a thread about setting up Hide sites to catch criminals coming over the border.
I agree wholeheartedly. It goes without saying (I thought) that inventive ways of crossing the US-Mexico border don't need to be posted here, but the rest of the trip is probably fair game. It's meant to be a difficult-sounding and realistic infiltration problem that involves traveling over a long distance on foot, through difficult physical and human terrain, making use of available assets as you encounter them.

With my limited field experience and knowledge, I am not especially confident in my ability to make the trip, and wondered how QPs and people who actually know what they're doing would approach the problem.

If you figured out your own ingineous way to infiltrate the country, then what/whose migration pattern exactly would be observed?!??!
The key words in the OP are 'aid in', this is meant to make you think of yourself as part of a larger effort to find and close holes in the border, like the hackers at the pentagon who test the security of US systems. By finding 'ingenious' methods of crossing, and reporting them, they can be closed...or seeded with hide sites

Down in Panama during training we thought we were out in the black hole of the jungle and up pops a couple of kids. They made good runners for cold drinks and fresh bread. Use your G Assets.
And the rural areas of Mexico have a reputation for crawling with narcos and bandits, so it's far from an easy trip in human-terrain terms. How would you interact with fellow migrants? Would your attitude towards them change as you got closer to various borders? Would you try to recruit and build a team of Gs, or would you go it alone? How would you orient yourself to your new, unfamiliar surroundings?
