Look at it this way, they won't be hunting your stands if they're not up. 2, some extra people moving around won't hurt. They'll move some deer. Find the thickets and hideouts that deer will pass through trying to avoid the lazy hunters. If you rehang the stands I'd take out the means to get to them. If you use steps, take out the bottom 8-10 feet. Stick some sticks in the holes so you can find them in the dark and carry in what you need when you hunt. OR, you can carry in the bottom couple sections of a climbing stick, or hide them on the route to the stand. I used to have a piece of property and lost it at 8:00 the night before the opener due to a divorce fight over who had permission and who did to allow hunting. I was pulling stands at 10:30 the night before the season.
