But I'm looking for a lightweight 10-12 footer for various quick chores that
don't require much height. A ladder like that would be a real convienience,
and shouldn't cost too much -- if only I could find one.

For that range I use a very light handy 16' extension ladder; 2 8-foot
sections that slide together. This covers the range 8-13' very nicely
and the aluminum ladders are cheap. The extension ladders are easier to
carry and store than a plain ladder. Note that a 16' extension ladder
will only extend to 13', it needs 3' overlap. The extension ladders
without the 'missing rung' are more confortable and a bit more expensive.
