CAMP Tree Access Evo

The CAMP Tree Access Evo is a European-style arborist climbing saddle built around a bridge attachment. It is made for climbers who spend long hours in the tree and want a saddle that moves well and supports them in a working position.

Why a bridge saddle

A bridge lets your climbing system slide side to side as you turn, so you can face your work without twisting against the tie-in. That freedom, plus a well-padded waist and leg loops, is why many production climbers favor European-style saddles for long days in the canopy.

The Tree Access Evo is CAMP's take on that design, with attachment points for lanyards, chainsaws and tools.

Comfort matters for safety as well as productivity. A saddle that pinches or digs in tires you faster, and a tired climber makes more mistakes. When choosing a saddle, think about how you climb: mostly SRS or MRS, spurs or no spurs, and what tools you carry. A European-style saddle like this one suits climbers who move around the canopy a lot and value freedom of movement.

Fit and inspection

Get the size right. The saddle should sit snug at the waist with the leg loops adjusted so you hang comfortably without pressure points. Hang-test in it before climbing.

Inspect the bridge, stitching, webbing and buckles before each use, and replace the bridge and other wear parts as CAMP directs. Life-support gear must meet the applicable standard, be used per the manufacturer's instructions and ANSI Z133, and be inspected before every climb. Get trained before using it aloft.
