A Darker View

Climbing a fifty foot ladder then another fifty feet of stairs can be a nice workout. At 13,600 feet elevation, and more, the ladder can be a daunting challenge. I have been up and down these ladders a couple times. Always worth the climb, even in thin air, just for the view from the top.

Access ladders climbing the side of the Keck 2 dome, a tough climb at 13,600+ ft.
