For a bow, rifle or muzzleloader, a silent, secure, and concealed climbing tree stand is a perfect perch for treestand hunters.

Bigfoot, Haynes Hunting, Lone Wolf, and Summit all manufacture a series of versatile, safe, and easy-to-use climbing tree platforms.

The Lone Wolf Sit and Climb offers ease in stand-up/sit down climbing, with a single piece cast-aluminum frame on 3-D camo pattern. Bow holder, adjustable bark pattern seat, cam-action fastening system, and slip free climbing comes with a steel-cable reinforced traction belt - resulting in a highly rated climbing tree stand with a profusion of positive comments and review on Cabela's.

The Summit Titan Climbing Treestand comes outfitted with RapidClimb™ stirrups for ease in climbing, with a QuickDraw™ cable system for securing to a tree, and offers that extra space for a larger hunter or those in need of securing more supplies.

The Summit Viper SS Treestand serves up Summit's lightest (20lbs) sit and stand tree climber, with a adjustable seat for bow or gun hunting, quick seat removal, cushioned wraparound bar for ease in climbing and acts as gun rest with seat lowered.

A treestands platform can range in size from 24¾ x 20-inches - 30¾ x 21-inches, weight in at 20 - 28 lbs, and accept a weight capacity of 300 - 350lbs. Stands at a mere 20lbs offer ease in trekking deep into woodland areas as a result of its lightweight, yet solid aluminum construction.

Tree stands for hunting allow for ease in set-up even in the dark, although it is advisable to familiarize with a treestand at low-level prior to setting up position at the ideal perching height. A full-body safety harness in place is one key piece of safety kit - full safety guidelines on the use of hunting tree stands are available on the official Treestand Manufacuters Association (TMA) website.

Accessories to complement tree climbing stands includes a Tree Stand Pack with organized compartments and pockets to conceal all kit items, such as rope, first aid kit, compass, game call, knife, shears, GPS, mini-flashlight, saw, cell phone, multi-tool, binoculars and more. In addition, heavy-duty replacement seat pads, gun/bow/thermos holders and pull up cases are also available.
