Which, incidentally is higher than most people have ever been on a ladder and he is only part way up this 100 foot aerial. I shot this picture today at fire class and yes, I did climb that ladder all the way to the top. :)
About 60 feet up I thought of this verse:
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
(Isa 40:31)
You can see more pictures from today, including the perspective from the top, here.

wow. That’s a wee bit too high for me! I’m used to being at sea level, thankyouverymuch… :)
Yeah. I’m with Lauren. I think about halfway up is when I would have a panic attack and promptly die. Thank you, I will stay on Terra Firma.
My little brothers would love to try that! ;-)
Wow! Looks like fun! I would definately climb that!
I like the verse Josiah. It’s one of my favorites :)
Wow that is a long way down… Did you have to wear all your equipment for the climb?
My favorite verse! And a very good promise to claim if you’re half way up and feeling queasy. :)
That’s a long ways up!
Thank you all! LOL, Jean, I came pretty close but such a thing would have been unacceptable with a fellow student, who is terrified of heights, watching after even he successfully climbed it.
I am sure they would, Beth, though if they are quite young I am guessing they would freak out half way up. :)
That it was, Corrinne, I was in full turnout gear, like everyone in the photo, but was not wearing breathing apparatus if that is what you are asking.
