Posted by wranglerroadhead I'm sure you already know, but be SUPER careful on the rungs. I've grabbed my share that felt solid to the hand but snapped right off underfoot. Sometimes the rust and decay is only evident where the rung in embedded in the concrete, out of view. Now that that is out of the way, allow me to congratulate you on an EPIC explore!

Very true.
That happened to a worker at a demo company I know. He started climbing a 70 foot concrete smokestack. About 40 feet up the first one bent, then another one under his foot, then the one in his hands.
There were three or four. No way to rope off; he was free climbing it.
He gingerly came safely back down. weeee!
Be very careful anytime anything is anchored in old concrete.
