Great job on climbing. I was alone exploring and didn't spend much time in the reactors. The view up there is astounding. At first I thought you may have shot that from a helicopter or remote controlled drone.

I'm curious about your photos from high up on the cooling tower. Are you using any safety harnesses when you're up that high? What other gear do you use? Are there railings on the upper rim?

Thanks man! No drones although that would be cool as shit, and nope no safety harness for the climb, just held on Here's a picture from the top, and yes that's my tiny shadow at the bottom.

Nice! Finally somebody climbs one. There are only so many angles you can shoot the base of one from.

Ballsy. I would have surely slipped at some point.

Thanks for the comments, everyone. It's a wonderful location, I already want to go back.

Also, although climbing it was definitely a rush, I don't think of it as particularly gutsy since a) I know lots of other people on here have climbed it without a harness and b) yeah, the stakes are higher, but it's still just a ladder!

Wow! Wonderful set, Hotwired Heart. Love your perspectives from way up there. I don't think I could bring myself to climb it, but I'm glad you did... seems like you enjoyed yourself and yay for returning to the ground safely!

That's basically my mentality as well when it comes to going up ladders.
