Of course, that would require twice as much lifeline and one very large
(5/8", 6,000 pound) pulley. Because my tower is 70 feet, and the
lifeline comes in 100 foot increments, I would have had to buy 200 feet
of it. I just didn't think it was worth the cost to save a few trips
with the extra hardware.

I thought of that, but couldn't figure out how to secure the top end of
the lifeline without climbing up there. Perhaps there's some mechanism
which would do that. Otherwise, the halyard has to be as strong as the
lifeline.

I meant to rig the lifeline up over the top and back down inside the tower,
tied off at the bottom.
Then when you remove it, you pull the junk halyard
