Those structures are fascinating. I'm afraid that I am one who would be planted firmly on the ground watching others climb. Well, the climbers need an audience to cheer them on, don't they?

I guess that I'd have to settle for the ground view. I know that my son wouldn't go up, he doesn't do heights! :-) Well, I’m not small at all, and probably not limber enough, but I’m not afraid of heights.

And not afraid of heights, which I am. You would probably get spectacular pictures from up there, but what the heck, you have to live with missing a few shots in life. :) Actually, most parents send up their kids to stress test the towers. ;) I have tried to climb up, but you need both to be small and limber.

I don't know if I'd trust the construction, but then again, you said that some 30,000 people/year visit, so it must be in pretty good condition. The background story makes it even more interesting and what a nice boost to actually get to meet the artist! What an interesting place.

And yes, he was pretty much as I expected him, not as artsy as younger artists can be. Thanks, Earl. And yes, he was pretty much as I expected him, not as artsy as younger artists can be.

The story and background you presented gave the photographs an extra dimension. Was the artist as you expected him to be? Excellent photos of amazing subjects.

It's a great place to visit, but hard to find since it's not on regular maps or signs. Makes it even more interesting, I guess... Photography-wise it's difficult too if you're there during the day. You have more or less the sun in front of you from all good views. Evenings are probably breath-taking, though... But then you have to get through the woods in the dark, when heading home again... :) Thanks, Chris and Andreas. It’s a great place to visit, but hard to find since it’s not on regular maps or signs.
