Safe as can be but takes a little getting use to it. My kids have never batted an eye going up and down but I have had 2 grown men lockup on me half way up and wouldn't go up or down. One time the ladder froze up while me and my daughter were in the stand and I wouldn't let her come down until someone brought me a large rope. I ran it over one of the angles up high and tied her off and had guy on the ground keep pressure on the other end as she climbed down. but.....why? There are 3 certainties in an uncertain world: 1. All Politicians Are Liars 2. All Gun Laws Are an Infringement 3. Taxation Is Theft

I can see three directions from that stand for a long ways. Never bothered me getting in and out of it. Aluminum ladder is tied off that runs up to floor underneath house. Once you get on lower floor you good since its surrounded by structure. Access from lower floor through trap door in bottom. no biggie. Replacing roof....different story.

We had what i thought were some pretty high shooting houses in the past........yours may be too high but we always built the roof (as light as possible) on a frame that would fit right inside the top of the shooting house - pulled it up with cables or ropes and then slid it in place - put screws in the frame from inside and were ready to go.

I dont mind crawling around in a tree but on top of a roof that high up makes me a little nervous. Getting up there and putting the tin on aint that big a deal but you better have a pretty good plan for getting down.

You just have to make the two legs touching the ground be still somehow. Then when you get it up anchor it down good.

I would LOVE to have that stand; appears to be well secured with the telephone poles thus safe in my eye. The first stand, not so secured!

This is the only way to do it if you ask me. Other than that, find somebody with some beach balls and buy the materials and see how much he'll do it for. Ain't nothing a sharp knife can't fix

I’ve been 60’ up in a climber on a big pine and was fine unless it whipped with the wind. But that would have me puckered up. Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!

Then hire a lightweight Derrick or small crane to hoist it up. Make all the connections from inside the stand. Nobody has to get on top of it without a safety line. You "could" do it with a tall man lift, but it'll cost just as much and be more labor intensive. I'd climb that sucker any day and twice on Sunday. That's a good looking stand.
