[QUOTE="DMD, post: 5588854, member: 2937"] I have no problem with that. I'm like some of the others have said - I hate walking in on public land and seeing people's trail cams, blinds, tree stands, etc. left in the woods. It litters the woods. Also, they are left there in some sort of effort to mark their territory. And, at times, they are just left out there to grow into the trees and make a mess. I'd like to see all public land, whatever you carry in, you carry out that day. OR..if it's a short term - 2-3 day hunt, leave it there till the hunt ends, then it leaves. I personally don't mind someone leaving a stand in a spot or a camera in a spot to hunt it on a short term hunt. I don't like when it's left out there they whole season or in some cases, forever. Reminds me of a lease I was on many years ago. It was bowater land, so 90% of it was basically unhuntable because it was thick pines. The only hardwoods were creek bottoms throughout the property. Some guy on the lease marked every single strip of hardwoods with Surveyor's tape. I asked the President of the lease "why?". He said, "well, he's just marking the spots he hunts so he can find them". I said NO! Because he's marked every strip of hardwoods - how does that help you find anything?? He's marking them so everyone knows he's hunting there and everyone else leave those spots alone. Often, that's what's happening when someone leaves stands, blinds, cameras, etc out on public land. The goal is to keep others away from their spot. I just don't like it. But, that's me. [/QUOTE]
