Ameristep
The Ameristep Grizzly Tree Step is a heavy-duty screw-in tree step built for hunters who demand reliable climbing gear that won't quit. Whether you're hauling yourself, a partner, or a full load of gear up to your stand, this step delivers the foothold you need—with a generous 6-inch step surface and the strength to handle serious weight safely.
Tree steps are often an afterthought until you're halfway up a tall oak wishing you had more places to plant your foot. The Grizzly's extended platform beats the cramped feel of standard steps and makes the climb smoother and more secure, especially when you're wearing heavy boots or moving with a pack. Mount as many as you need to create a ladder-like progression up your tree—spacing and placement are up to you and your specific tree and stand setup.
Installation is straightforward: each step uses a 2-inch self-tapping screw that cuts its own threads as you drive it in, so you don't need pilot holes or special tools. The screw point is designed to seat firmly in the tree without damage or slipping. Black finish blends into most bark and won't catch light in the stand.
At 1250 pounds of rated capacity, the Grizzly is overbuilt for typical hunting use—a solid safety margin whether you're a solo climber or shouldering gear. Replaceable steps are available separately if you need to refresh worn units on permanent or semipermanent setups.
| Step Surface Length | 6 inches |
| Weight Capacity | 1250 pounds |
| Fastener | 2-inch self-tapping screw |
| Finish | Black |
That depends on the height of your stand and your climbing comfort. Most hunters space them 18–24 inches apart for a natural stride. For a 15-foot stand, you'd typically use 6–8 steps, but your tree's diameter, bark texture, and personal preference all play a role.
The 2-inch self-tapping screw creates a small puncture and threads into the wood. Like all screw-in steps, it will leave a mark, but trees heal around these fasteners over time. Some hunters prefer them to climbing spikes because the wound is smaller and cleaner.
You can buy steps individually. Many hunters add them one or two at a time as they refine their setup, or replace worn steps on long-standing climbing routes.
The self-tapping screw works on trees with sufficient diameter and solid wood (typically 6 inches and up). Very thin saplings or extremely hard wood may present challenges; soft to medium hardwoods are ideal.
