Maybe even snow camo?

ASAT 3-D leafy suit in my opinion would work great !

Dan, just curious...How long can you last standing/sitting on that ladder. I would think after a couple hours it might get pretty uncomfortable. That would be a great tool for a good deer drive.

If sitting on it, I could sit there all day... I do use the ladder a lot gun hunting. I have been wanting to get a 16 footer for out in the cattails just for gun hunting.

Wow. That's a tall ladder to set out in cattails. When I was up there in the cattails, it seemed like they wouldn't support that very well. Even with the first rung on the roots, wouldn't that be a bit unstable? I guess if you're used to it you could make it work.

10 footers are pretty stable.
