With a river running through the hunting property, it's been tough not getting your feet or the game wet plus trying to drag animals up the banks. Came up with this solution....a simple rope operated chair lift. Strung a piece of 1/2" diameter steel cable across tied to trees on each side. Made a simple trolley from pulleys and attached a seat to a metal frame. Next was a series of pulleys with a pull rope.....one man operation to pull yourself to the other side. Strong enough to haul gear and deer.
Made a chair lift that incorporates safety features for the kids. Has expanded metal seat to allow snow & moisture to fall through and weather well outdoors. Safety bar lifts up and out of the way....drops down and provides a hand hold.
Added several attachment points on the frame to hang a gun-bow-backpack-or deer.
This photo is from a few years back with a different seat arrangement.
