As high as the tree will allow,heights don' t bother me.I usually climb until my pull rope stops me.

48 ft! Ya' ll have more faith in your climbers than I do in mine. 15-20 for me.

It should depend on conditions doesn' t make much sense to go 100 foot in the air if ya can' t see the target because of trees, etc... Every place is different and every person is different so it depends on alot of factors

15-16 feet. Any higher and I might get a little unsteady in my climber. [:o]

I don' t like a climber because it really limits the tree I can use. In my area the trees aren' t always cooperative, straight and tall that is!

My chain ons are usually set between 15-20 ft.

I used to be a tree surgeon, so I like to go high up. Most of the time I dont even use a stand.. just rope and harness. Not as comfortable, but less hassle than carrying a stand (public land).

The area really makes a difference. I wouldn' t feel comfortable in a climber over 30 feet.
But I do climb about 55-60 feet in a huge pine tree for rifle hunting. Nice big branches, just sit on them. I feel way more comfortable 55 ft in this tree with no stand than I do 15 ft up in a climber with no branches around me.

48 feet, my god you guys like to get high, thats just about to the max of my shooting range with a bow if I shoot straight down :), well almost anyway. I have never used a climber but would like to give it a go. For me its been a 12' ladder stand max.
