Abstract
A tree stand is provided, having a frame. The tree stand may be a standing tree stand in which case the frame includes a platform on which a user may stand; alternatively, the tree stand may be a seating tree stand in which case the frame includes a seat on which a user may sit. The tree stand includes a cable dimensioned to be wrapped around a tree. The tree stand is configured so that tension in the cable may be adjusted while the tree stand supports the weight of the user. In one aspect, the tree stand employs a rotatable sleeve in one arm for adjusting the length of the cable by adjusting the tension in the cable.
