RE: Michigan Hunter..... Question?
Yes ... you can put your treestand up Sept, 1st and leave it there until Jan, 1st providing you have it cable locked and your name , divers license No. , street address and telephone No.is on it.
It must clearly mark so that the DNR can read it from the ground , this is stated in your rules and regulations giude book and its good for public and state land.
I used a bright florensent yellow paint marker on both of my stands and I wrote on the bottom face of the platfrorm so they can see it even when it gets dark.
