Default RE: How risky going into woods just before opener?

I find the feedback interesting. Seems important to be extremely caustious. The problem with my lease is, we have no assigned areas, so i might stay away, but others on my lease are riding the atv's right next to my stand.

For example, I picked this spot months ago based on a rub line. The game cam showed a pic of a whopper, so I put my stand there. I have hunted it once during bow season, but decided to stay away until ML. Last weekend, one week before our opener, I found atv and trailer tracks running all over this area, then i found the stand, 15 yds from mine. Not intentional as I know he did not see my stand, he just saw the rub line and dropped a stand. Point is, on my lease, preserving the area for "first time in hunting" is impossible here.
