Abstract

Embodiments of tree climbing sticks adapted to be secured to a tree and provide a tree climbing assist are provided. In one embodiment, for example, a tree climbing stick is provided including a retractable aider step. The retractable aider step is adapted to be extended from the tree climbing stick during use and at least partially retracted within the tree climbing stick for transport and storage. In another embodiment, a tree climbing stick is adapted to be stacked and nested with another tree climbing stick. In this embodiment, a clip of the tree climbing stick is adapted to engage a button of an adjacent tree climbing stick and standoffs of the tree climbing sticks are adapted to nest so that the tree climbing sticks can be stacked vertically without axially extending from each other.
