I got one of those Big Game ladder stands a few years back, 2 man, but still tight fit.

So I built my own this past summer and we are taking 5 miles back in on sled once trail is good enough. I have 800 bucks into it. 2 inch sq pipe, 1/8 inch but main supports & ladder is 3/16 two in pipe. Weighs too much, 700 lbs and we'll winch it up, 2 ladders 20 feet up. I used ply board and will take a pict tomorrow of frame and post. It will last 50 years, no joke and going on a lick. Indians & me are hauling it out pretty quick. Heavy duty, but ain't gonna rust away either.
