The Stalker is a nice climbing stand. Comfy and solid but the climbing aid sucks because its noisey and the ridigity of the aid can get caught/wedged on knots, etc. Just my opinion.

Don't know if still available but the last time I checked on Loggy's site they were clearing out the stalkers w/aid for $120 plus shipping. Its a shame they are going under, the Monarch and the new Predator hangons were good stands. Maybe somebody will take them over and get them going again.
