Chuck,

Sportsmans Guide sells tree stand levelers that fit in the legs of a ladder stand.  Each has a  pivoting plate and holes so that you can adjust the legs to different heights.  I drilled my ladder stand so that the clips attach the leveler to it.

When I went to Iowa, the stands usually faced up hill.  The platform in front was 12 or so feet off the ground.  In back of the tree it was 3 miles to the ground!!!  I don't care much for heights either.  Getting harder and harder to go over high bridges.

You will not catch me in a ladder stand, however I feel 100% secure in my new tribes tree saddle.  My treestand is my safety harness!
