Abstract
A tripod assembly includes a plurality of columns disposed in a nested arrangement for relative axial movement in a telescopic fashion along a longitudinal axis of the plurality of columns between a fully-extended position and a collapsed position. When the columns are collapsed from the fully-extended position each column substantially nests within another one of the columns. The plurality of columns are received within the central post when the plurality of columns is in the collapsed position. The bracket assembly is coupled to the second end of the connecting rod, and the bracket assembly is configured to receive a selectable rung of a ladder therein. The bracket member is coupled to an uppermost one of the columns, and the bracket member includes a channel configured to receive a second selectable rung of the ladder.
