I've got i double set hung so my 12 year old daughter and my girlfriend can go with me this year.I can't get my steps any closer together for them to get up because i'm beating the pee out of my knees and they don't feel safe on the steps.So what would everybody recommend?

cabelas makes a put together ladder that connects to make a straight climbing stick. They are cheap and they look like they would be alittle bulky but it would probably work.
