You need to try to develop a feel for the location so that you don't get seen or disturbed. Make sure you're aware of the land's use; if it's farmland near to populated areas then if you show any light, you're likely to get investigated.
Find your spot well before dark then come back to it at dusk. Arrive late and leave early. If you eat before you stop for the night it's fairly easy to find somewhere just to pitch up and sleep.
I make sure I can bundle my sh1t together and be gone quick if needs be. You can always have a sort out and cook some breaky later.
I once picked a great spot out of site behind some dense woodland. I was woken up by the sound of vehicles and could just see in the half light, a load of squadies, yomping towards my camp. They probably wouldn't have been bothered but I didn't fancy being accidently run over by a Landie or an APC.
