Abstract: An injection-molded climbing stick includes a first step, a second step, and a post extending from the first step to the second step along a length of the post and comprising a plurality of fibers that includes every fiber that is disposed within the post. The plurality of fibers includes a sub-plurality of fibers. Each fiber in the sub-plurality of fibers is elongated in a lengthwise direction of the fiber and oriented such that the lengthwise direction is substantially parallel to the length of the post, and the sub-plurality of fibers includes a majority of the fibers in the plurality of fibers.

Abstract: A climbing stick includes first and second steps, a post, and a standoff. First and second outer walls and an inner wall extend the length of the post. The inner wall is between the first and second outer walls. First diagonal walls extend upward and rightward from the first outer wall to the second outer wall. Second diagonal walls extend upward and leftward from the second outer wall to the first outer wall. A first floor portion extends the length of the post between the first outer wall and inner wall. A second floor portion extends the length of the post between the second outer wall and inner wall. The first and second floor portions are interrupted by the first and second diagonal walls. The standoff extends rearward from the first step to a rear wall of the standoff with ridges and valleys arranged in alternating fashion to form teeth.

Abstract: A platform assembly for attachment to a tree includes a platform, an integrally formed post coupled to the platform and operable to pivot relative to the platform about a pivot axis, and a standoff extending outward from the post proximate to the first end. The post extends from a first end to a second end along a length of the post that is substantially perpendicular to the pivot axis.

Abstract: A tree saddle includes a first panel having first and second ends with a body portion disposed therebetween, and a second panel having first and second ends with a body portion disposed therebetween. One or more connecting members operably couple the first and second panels to one another. A magnetic coupling system includes a first magnetic array disposed on the first panel, and a second magnetic array disposed on the second panel. The first magnetic array is magnetically coupled to the second magnetic array when the tree saddle is in a coupled condition. The first magnetic array is uncoupled from the second magnetic array when the tree saddle is in an uncoupled condition. The tree saddle includes a first profile when the tree saddle is in the uncoupled condition that is greater than a second profile of the tree saddle when the tree saddle is in the coupled condition.

Abstract: A platform assembly for attachment to a tree includes a platform and a post. The platform has an outer perimeter that bounds an interior structure of the platform that is horizontally-inboard of the outer perimeter. The outer perimeter includes a rear portion, a first wing portion coupled to the rear portion at a first wing portion rear corner and including an outboard-most portion of the outer perimeter in a first lateral direction, a front portion coupled to the first wing portion, and a second wing portion coupled to the front portion. The post is coupled to the platform and pivots relative to the platform about a pivot axis.
