page 32 of the license book says

"It is unlawful while hunting or preparing to hunt to 1)damage any tree on public or private property by constructing a treestand or using a portable treestand or device to climb a tree;"

Does that mean climbers are illegal on public land, or that you just can't damage trees? I know it's a stupid question, but with the way that's worded i just can wrap my brain around it.
