[QUOTE="Skibbys bottom, post: 135065, member: 4039"] If indeed it is located on federal public lands I would get in touch with the appropriate land management agency and inform them of this. There is laws pertaining to semi permanent structures on public lands. In Montana you must remove your treestands at the end of the season. If you don't they are supposed-ed free game to anyone who finds them after the first two weeks on the end of the season. you might want to check out and see if this same rule applies to N. Dak. Even though I consider my self a N. Dak. Resident (was born and raised there and still consider it my home). I am not up on the regulations concerning tree stands left on public lands. Remember public, means it belongs to all of us not just a few.
