Well Smoke old pal.. I went to check on one of my best stands this AM and found a new road dozed into my area. The tree my stand had been in was gone along with the stand. Never would of thought you guys in the backwoods would have thesame amount of trouble. Really takes the fun out of it. I only live 25 miles from Boston and places to hunt are hard to find and now I lose another. It is really depressing IE.. Sukks big time.
