    Dead ash tree platform squeak

    You’re probably right. Thankfully I’m only 140lbs. Use good judgement people!

    Dead ash tree platform squeak

    Replying to myself...an old rag between the teeth of the stand-off and the bark of the tree eliminates the squeak. I’ll try the unpainted standoff included with the platform and see if it makes a difference. I am using the black one now.

    Dead ash tree platform squeak

    Where I hunt there’s a lot of dead ash trees and the standoff of my predator platform loves to squeak on that particular dead bark. Anybody found a trick to stop it creaking/squeaking? I’m going to try shaving the bark away with a knife and report back if it works. Or maybe a piece of cloth...

    Tether climbing?

    This is how I climb. I have two identical 11.8mm tethers. Each tether has two loops on either end. One end I girth hitch around the tree, the other end is big enough for my foot to fit into. There is a distel hitch (8mm rope) hanging on both tethers, which I use to hook my carabiner/rock...

    WTB Single Step wild edge

    Old lone wolf II hand climber mod?

    Looks like I missed their business hours. Didn’t they used to make a conversion kit to add a traction belt? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Old lone wolf II hand climber mod?

    I’m just getting into this whole game and saw some vids on DRT climbing... looks awesome for trees with limbs/crotch, but not sure about aspens and such with no limbs. So I figured since I need a platform anyways, I’d get a lone wolf hand climber and use it to climb smooth, limbless aspens and...
