Have mercy! OK, you guys need some good old fashioned ingenuity.
I put my 20 footer ladder stand up as follows. First, I put all the ladder sections together and prop it up against the tree with the bottom about 5 foot away from tree. No stand on top yet. Then I climb up ladder to top of ladder and chain a small rope pulley to tree. Climb back down with both ends of rope. Lay ladder down and attach stand to top of ladder. Then tie one end of rope to top of ladder stand and the other end to my four wheeler. Get onto four wheeler and start moving away fromtree and ladder is pulled up straight to tree. Keep four wheelerlocked in place and tie the wrap around tree stablizer ropes to ladder BEFORE climbing up ladder steps. Then climb up ladder and fashen rachet straps to tree and remove the rope pulley and climb back down. Check to see if all rope stablizers are tight and rachet is secure and then pat yourself on the back for such an easy way for putting up your 20 foot ladder stand withNO HELP! Easy peesy, japaneasy! LOL
