Learn To Fly

Cause thats the only way you're getting up this beast. Had my friends from Dark Ascents come down last night to attempt this water tower. We hooked the ladder and attempted the 20 ft climb to the bottom of the ladder. Due to the bounce in the rope, it made it almost impossible to climb any more than 10 feet. Fucking fail, once again. I officially give up on this tower. We gave up trying to climb after an hour, but spent another 4 hours there trying to find ways to get the grappling hook back Unfortunately, it turned out to be a casualty, along with a good 20-30ft of rope. Damn. Oh well, I'm sure this one will be covered by cameras in no time now. :(

They're not gonna bother with cameras; when a "no climbing" sign will do.
