Advice on How to Carry a Treestand and Pack

[WVeer]

My pack fits on my stand nicely so i carry my stand with it's backpack straps.  I use a couple cheap aluminum carabineers attached to my stand and just snap my pack to it.  I use a small bungee strap too.  The stand is not the most comfortible to carry but with some padding (rolled up jacket or shirt), it's manageable.  I leave the carabineers attached all the time and use them to hold stuff when I'm in my stand (kind of a safety belt for stuff).  I have been known to drop a few things.

Tree Saddle.  I've started carrying just ladder sections instead of steps.  Much more quiet and much less sweat during installation.

For my equalizer climber I use a Blacks Creek Rigg it and a small backpack bungeed with my coat in the frame work of the climber.

When I hunt from my treesaddle I use a Eberlestock Blue Widow put the saddle inside and lash down the 4 or 5 LW sticks to the back.

I used Molle straps before the rigg it good but not as comfortable.  Again with the small back bungeed in.
