RE: Question..who's done it?
I would definitely risk it. It really sucks lugging a climber that far in and back out every time you choose to hunt in such a location. I've done it many a times. You finally get there and you are so bushed by the time the deer start coming you are passed out. Not to mention all the noise you make busting a trail through the brush with that climber on your back. Dang near impossible to be quiet and still get to your stand without kicking up deer. JUST LEAVE IT THERE.
