Sorry you got ripped off, it sucks that you can't trust anyone to mind their own business these days. I hate the idea that everything has to be locked down to keep it from wandering off.

This part of the reason I used the screw in steps. They aren't as user friendly, but they can be removed on your way down and twisted back in on your way back up. Keeps people from messing with what isn't theirs.Screw ins are illegal on most public lands since they technically "damage" the tree.

It's a different offense for each agency (WDFW, DNR, USFS, etc) so no it is not in the regs. You have to look at land use regs for the lands you are hunting on. Most people don't know you cant dig pit blinds for waterfowl hunting on WDFW lands either.Is that in the regs?

Essentially all public lands. You can't damage trees, brush, etc on public lands. Doesn't matter if its WDFW, DNR, USFS, USFWS, BLM, etc. By screwing them in you re technically damaging the tree. I know guys who were cited for breaking small branches off to install their tree stand. So any "damage" is illegal.Are they illegal on usfs land or which lands are they illegal onIt's a different offense for each agency (WDFW, DNR, USFS, etc) so no it is not in the regs.

Here is the reg for WDFW lands:
WAC 232-13-120
(1)(a) It is unlawful to dig pits for the purpose of hunting waterfowl, or to cut trees or attach artificial fasteners (such as wire, staples or nails) to trees for the construction of camps, blinds and tree stands on department lands.
