What should you do before climbing into a treestand?

  1. Unload your firearm or bow

  2. Notify all animals in the area

  3. Remove your hunter orange

  4. Check the weather forecast only

The correct answer is: Unload your firearm or bow

Before climbing into a treestand, it is important to ensure that your firearm or bow is unloaded to prevent any accidents or injuries. Option B is incorrect because it is not necessary to notify animals in the area as this could potentially scare them away. Option C is also incorrect as wearing hunter orange is a crucial safety measure while hunting. Option D is incorrect because checking the weather forecast is just one of many precautions that should be taken before climbing into a treestand. However, it is not the only step that should be taken.
