The Muddy MUD-MSS-4PK Micro Stagger Step delivers secure footing for hunters accessing elevated stands with minimal tree damage. These compact steel steps feature an innovative staggered design that reduces installation time while providing maximum grip stability. Each step measures just 4 inches wide, making them nearly invisible from ground level while maintaining full load capacity for safe ascent and descent.
What Makes This Different
The micro profile design sets these steps apart from bulky traditional climbing aids that leave obvious marks on trees. The staggered tooth pattern bites deep into bark without requiring large pilot holes, preserving tree health while creating bombproof anchor points. Steel construction withstands repeated use and weather exposure that destroys plastic alternatives within a single season.
