A portable multi-use platform that is capable of providing 360 degree views for multiple persons safely and securely without interfering with each individuals comfort space. The platform can be easily set up and taken down and transported to different locations using a detachable wheeled frame assembly. The applications of this platform are not limited solely to hunting but can be used in numerous activities such as “zip-line” type sports, photography and video applications, utility pole climbing professions, as well as military and police operations. This platform solves the problem of partial views, limited occupants, and the transportation over terrain to and from site. It also addresses the issue of attaching to a plurality of various tree sizes with a sliding floor attachment system as well as a possible problem of tree lean and leveling with the use of a sliding “biter” system.

1. A portable tree platform comprising: a base frame including a fixed biter, forward extending arms, and an adjustable biter, the adjustable biter configured to be movably secured along the forward extending arms of the base frame, wherein the forward extending arms are fixed and configured to be positioned substantially parallel on opposite sides of a tree, the fixed and adjustable biters having gripping members configured to engage with the tree, the gripping members of at least the adjustable biter extending across a width of the adjustable biter and connected between the forward extending arms, wherein the adjustable biter is configured to be displaced along a linear direction within the base frame and relative to the forward extending arms in order to move into and out of engagement with the tree without extending beyond a major length of the forward extending arms, wherein the linear direction is parallel to said major length which is substantially orthogonal to said width, wherein the base frame includes a locking assembly configured to engage the adjustable biter to slidably lock the adjustable biter in one of a plurality of positions along the forward extending arms, and the base frame further including platform support members;a floor platform assembly supported on the platform support members, the floor platform assembly comprising an entry platform floor piece including a hinged floor entry door configured to pivot between an open position and a closed position;at least two cantilevers pivotally secured to an underside of the floor platform assembly, each of the cantilevers respectively including a cantilever biter at a lower end thereof, and the cantilever biter having gripping members configured to engage with the tree; and,a ladder terminating at a position directly below the hinged floor entry door for allowing a user to ascend the ladder, pass through the hinged floor entry door when in the open position, and walk on the floor platform assembly. 2. The portable tree platform according to claim 1, comprising three cantilever biters pivotally secured to the underside of the platform assembly. 3. The portable tree platform according to claim 1, further comprising a lower binder strap coupled with the base frame and extendable around the cantilevers to draw the cantilevers and the cantilever biters toward the tree. 4. The portable tree platform according to claim 3, further comprising an upper binder strap coupled with the base frame, the upper binder strap being extendable around the tree to secure the base frame to the tree. 5. The portable tree platform according to claim 1, further comprising a wheel section selectively attachable to the base frame, the wheel section including a wheel frame, an axle and two wheels, wherein a space between the platform supporting members of the base frame is wide enough to fit the platform assembly in a disassembled, upright orientation such that the platform assembly is supportable by the wheel section for transport. 6. The portable tree platform according to claim 1, wherein the floor platform assembly further comprises an opposite platform floor piece. 7. The portable tree platform according to claim 6, wherein the entry and opposite platform floor pieces comprise seat mounting brackets. 8. The portable tree platform according to claim 6, wherein the entry and opposite platform floor pieces comprise rail mounting brackets, and wherein the portable tree platform further comprises a shooting rail secured in the rail mounting brackets. 9. The portable tree platform according to claim 6, further comprising an anchor brace connected to the ladder, the anchor brace being attachable to the tree. 10. The portable tree platform according to claim 6, further comprising ladder extension sections attachable to the ladder, the ladder extension sections extending a height of the ladder. 11. The portable tree platform according to claim 6, further comprising a pulley system separate from the base frame and independently attachable to the tree, the pulley system facilitating installation of the entry and opposite platform floor pieces onto the platform supporting members of the base frame. 12. The portable tree platform according to claim 6, further comprising a wheel section selectively attachable to the base frame, the wheel section including a wheel frame, an axle and two wheels, wherein a space between the platform supporting members of the base frame is wide enough to fit the entry and opposite platform floor pieces in a disassembled, side-by-side, upright orientation such that the entry and opposite platform floor pieces are supportable by the wheel section for transport.
