Mine gets used for painting, mostly, but it's light enough and easy enough to carry that it should be suitable for your needs. If you're wanting to get away from the road a bit you might look into a bare pack frame. Campmor used to carry one, but they don't seem to anymore. This is the first reasonably priced frame I came across: http://www.securityprousa.com/alpacframgis.html With something like this you could lash the step ladder and your tripod to it. Probably your camera bag, too.
