One year for Field Day, K7ZB and I were hanging several wire antennas
from the tall Ponderosa Pine trees along a forest service trail on the
Mogollon Rim in central Arizona. A car drove by and a woman got out to
ask us if we were setting snares for bears. She was serious.

Someone has called the sheriff on me twice while set up on a park

That said, a pedestrian-mobile version of the dipole held a few feet
above the operator's head would eliminate the dragged counterpoise.
I'd be concerned about nearby trees and ogling passersby.
