Stacking steel about 30 years and 30 lbs ago!



 



 


400' up a guyed tower that we had just completed building near Tallahassee, FL.  In the bottom photo we're in the process of installing the antennas and lines on the new cell tower.

400' is roughly 395' to far off the ground for me thanks.  I can climb a 40' windmill tower and things move around a bit too much for my taste ;D.

You probably would not have liked this tower.... it was a 2000' foot TV tower located in White Lake, NC.  This photo was taken from approximately 1,800' up the tower.  I spent about a week working on it in 1990 replacing the lighting system (it had been damaged by falling ice).

It's the first tower that I ever worked on where I actually looked down at aircraft!
