Unless the entire property is fenced and posted, I don't think I would
run *any* cables at four feet above ground. The chance of an accident
is simply too great - along with the nature of the injuries that could
result. I would not have anything below about 8 feet (other than guy
wires which are unavoidable) and the low ends of the guy wires would
have "high visibility" covers.
The US legal system is a farce when it comes to liability these days -
if a "rich kid" out running wild on a dirt bike or ATV were to hit the
cable runs, even though trespassing, you could be responsible for the
injuries due to creating unsafe conditions.
I am not an attorney. Contact yours to make sure your interests are
protected *before* constructing anything that could be considered
unsafe.
