What is a safe practice when climbing a tree stand?

Carrying equipment and firearms while climbing
Using a full-body harness
Climbing higher than 30 feet for a better view
Avoiding the use of a safety strap

The correct answer is: Using a full-body harness

When climbing a tree stand, using a full-body harness is a safe practice because it helps prevent falls and serious injuries. A full-body harness secures your entire body to the tree stand, reducing the risk of a fall if you slip or lose your balance while climbing. It is essential to always use a full-body harness and ensure it is properly attached to the tree stand to stay safe while hunting from an elevated position. Carrying equipment and firearms while climbing (option A) can be dangerous as it can lead to imbalance and potential fall hazards. Climbing higher than 30 feet (option C) is not recommended as it increases the risk of injury if a fall occurs. Avoiding the use of a safety strap (option D) is also unsafe and goes against best practices for tree stand safety.
