That's similar to what I was thinking about. I suppose for aesthetics,
the bracket itself wouldn't need to be attached permanently. I suppose
the only permanent part need be some threaded studs that the brackets could
attach to. Not sure how well something like that could be weather-sealed,
though.
As far as visibility, they'll be partially obscured by trees but otherwise
visible.
