I'm not familiar with the NE PA woods, but if it's anything like the hardwoods we have here you're most flexible and economic choice is a climber. I prefer Summit climbers. If you're using it for bowhunting only I would recommend the Cobra or Bushmaster(both have an open front).....if it's for strictly gun hunting the Viper would be my choice and any would be a good bet for a multi-season/weapon stand.
