Lone wolf tree stand

So last season I bought a lone wolf assault II. I regret not getting an alpha hang on II because I feel the assault is a bit small after using it a couple times. Anyway that is not what the post is really about. I left my stand up all winter and summer. I know I should have taken it down but life happened and I did not get the chance. Any way is there anything special I should do before using it this season. Should it still be safe. I have never used a store bought stand before this one I am used to making my own out of wood. Any advice would be helpful. Oh I left my sticks out too.

I would replace the straps for sure.

Check all the nuts and bolts. They should still be good after only 1 year but I always go over everything

 

I Think you will be fine. Just give it a good once over make sure everything looks safe. an go from there!

 

At the minimum check all of the straps thoroughly. I've had squirrels chew on some of mine.

 

Yes check the straps, I went to move a ladder stand the other day and found this.

 

I think your straps should be fine but definitely need to check them. Only a few bucks for some new straps.

 

Just make sure you have your harness on.
