[TowerTalk] wood towers

[Mike]

Yup, we did the same.  Some almost to 40 feet with two hand ropes and a
single walk rope between them with no safety harness, the only Engineer on
site was the Scout Master, it is amazing we are still alive: -)

The game was how fast you could climb one tower and walk across 50 feet and
come down the other tower.

when i was a boy scout back in the 70s, we always made towers about 30' tall
that were lashed togather with rope......early oil derricks were made from
wood.......post a pic when you get it done. david k5qwo
