In a cabin, on a mountain, in "Wilderness" Alaska.
So, someone is putting a lot of boxes into a public (locked) storage unit. Say 40 boxes. Containing personal belongings and household "STUFF". They are marking the contents on outside of each box.

What MARKED boxes would be "least likely" to be stolen or rummaged through. Clearly boxes marked CASH or GOLD or GUNS or BOOZE might spark substantial first interest.

Parents Cremated Ashes less likely.
What would you mark the boxes you most desired be NOT stolen or rummaged through....???

Note: This is a serious question. (However humor is OK).
 
Examples:

Lawn mower parts
Class books 2'nd & 3'rd year RIT
Freeze-dried mice (fish bait).
Dirty Laundry
Grandma Smith's Ashes (Urn is cracked)
Holley Carburetor....Parts
Valve Covers for Oldsmobile
BED PANS
ETC.

When we moved here years ago I rented 2 large storage units. The only markings that we put on the boxes was which room they came out of. Nothing else. If it wasn't good stuff, we wouldn't have moved it. When we moved out of Alaska our stuff went by barge to Seattle and the wife and I flew. We hand carried two large bags full of gold and silver bars through the airports and on the planes. It always created a lot of interest by TSA when going through the metal detectors.
 
Anything that important, will go behind a locked metal door, maybe a locked box too.
