Need an archery blind for 2-man ladder tree stand.
I hunt in the hills of Minnesota. We have some very steep tall bluffs.
My 2-man tree stand is 3/4 of the way up the hill. I am up and hidden away from the trails below my ladder stand. There is a trail 30 yards "up" the hill from my stand.
What I want is a cover to inclose all of my stand so deer can't see me from above. I want to be able to use with a 2-man stand, be able to pull my box back, weather resistant, and that whatever material it is, not move around in the wind to much.
I tried a raintop type that fastens to the tree above, but it still leaves me to get busted.
I do have a camo-skirt that goes around my blind where I sit, but that only goes up to 2 or 3 feet.
If you have any ideas, suggestions, or products to share, thank you

Not sure of what you have, but you could make a square frame out of wood pieces or even out of straight limbs. Then staple camo blind material onto it tight. You can even fasten some twigs or evergreen boughs over the top. Then screw it to the tree or put some hangers on it. Doesn't sound like you need an entire blind, just one side right? You could build what I suggest for $10 in the cost of the camo burlap. I made such a shield for my bow stand - it allows me to hide behind it while I draw the bow.
