Pretty standard 2 step aider made with tubular webbing and static line to hold the stirrup open. The top step is just over 6’ in this pic, but I can easily stretch that to 7’.....

I was quick to discover that after seating your foot in the stirrup if you put your toes into the tree it will hold the second stirrup away from the tree thereby making it much easier to get your foot in without much fuss.

Basically, I’ve turned 4 sticks into 5 with this as I don’t see me using it after the first stick. I may add a single to the second stick, but that will have to become second nature before I add one to the third stick.
 


I would make you one, but I could never convince myself that steps really need to be that close to each other.
