I hunt in michigan and its legal to leave a stand until the end of the hunting season. The woodlots i hunt are usually private and small to medium in size.Most of these spots are owned by developers and corporations waiting for housing or stripmalls to be built. They hold good amounts of deer but the nearby homeowners or teritorial hunters take offense to sharing the land. I would use a climber but it' s hard to find the right tree in the right spot that will accomadate a climber. Also i hunt very close to beds and feeding areas and i can' t make much noise.
