ABSTRACT:
A collapsible tree stand to provide an elevated support for a hunter or hunters against a tree trunk. The stand includes an elongated sectional ladder having a platform seat and footrest each pivotally attached to the uppermost ladder section. The platform seat also includes safety front and side rails removably associated with the seat. An anchoring structure is provided for securing the tree stand to the tree. The seat and footrest are dimensioned to accommodate a single occupant or two occupants. When disassembled, the safety rails attach and nest, and the platform seat and footrest collapse and nest with respect to the uppermost ladder section, for compact transport and storage.
