Climbing a 2,000-ft tall tower - GIF

Now it's time to camp out and change the lamp at the top, whether it needs it or not! The free climb on that tower is probably about 100 ft or so. You get to climb that AFTER the first 1900 feet inside an ever narrowing cage. I'm surprised it's a solo climb. Typically they service all of the beacons on the way up and it takes a second person to haul the equipment. Maybe he left that guy at the last beacon? I wonder how long the whole climb takes?
