I bought 3 Hunter Safety System Life Lines a month ago, after having almost falling on the way up my ladder stand. Same thing as you, had some mud on my boots, made things slippery, and if it weren't for a lucky grab, would have fallen. I absolutely love the life line systems. They are very easy to use and install and I love the fact that I'm attached as soon as I take a step off the ground.

I bought 3 of them for $99 of Amazon, but a person could make them on their own for a much cheaper price if they are any good with tying knots, which I'm not. If you wear a harness, I think it's a no-brainer to be attached the whole way up, as opposed to only while in the stand.
