You're scouting some state land and you are fairly far back in. Then you see it. About 75 yds away and 15 feet up is a bigobject (you know what it is though). As you get closer you see the feeder too. It is about 1 mile in from one parking area and about 1.25 miles in from the other. Coincidentily, it is only about 200-250 yds from a house LOL. When you get to the stand/feeder site you can see another stand about 75 yds away towards the house. After checking, you confirm that the stand/feeder are inside state land by about 25 yds. This is all right on top of a small finger/ridge that shoots off of larger ridge. The other stand site is not on state land.

So, what do you do?

I marked the location in the GPS and talked to the DNR folks today. They were glad I called .

i would have done the same thing that you did

I'd do the same. Ya did good!

I'd make sure my coordinates were correct......and give the guy the benefit of the doubt on 25 yds. with no marked/distinct boundary.

Really a no-brainer, but knowing this site, it is likely to turn into a 10 page argument[]

Ditto

I am guessing since you are asking the question and your reported it that feeders are not allowed in your State, or at lease not on State ground. I would have done exactly what you did, but only after I checked the area really good for any sheds laying around.

Id do the same also. Good job

That was part of the confirming they were inside of state land. Very plainly marked with the state's white signs about every 20 yds.

OK, then. I think you did the right thing. Knowing you're in there is inexcuseable.
