I quit deer hunting a few years ago. These pictures were sent to me by a good friend of mine, a retired wildlife biologist. If I had access to a set-up like this, I probably could be convinced to take the sport back up - at least with a camera!

This is the way they do it in Alberta .

How to make a Deer Stand

Start with a small to medium size camping trailer.

Pull it out to a likely looking area.

Jam some poles in the ground.

Use a couple of tractors with loaders.

Raise it WAY UP (and fasten it!).

Drink a beer or two and step back to admire your work.

Build a deck (so you'll have a place to sit outside and drink another beer)

Build some nice stairs so you don't have to go down a ladder while inebriated.

Practice shooting deer with a piece of lumber.

Can't live on beer alone. Don't burn down the deck though!

I like that. Maybe its just me but that terrain looks more like Iowa or somplace in the midwest. Just now how I pictured Alberta to look I guess.

I can't speak to the accuracy - I posted it just as it came to me, description and pictures. I did find this photo online of another similar deer stand:
