how many visitors do you suppose actually clamber up that
wobbly looking cairn at finoru
to reach all the way to the pyramid apex
& how many dream of
& how few succeed in reaching all the way to the true finose
on top of whatever you call that other funny looking monument
the yellow upside down tub
which as i recall is itself already difficult to reach in the flesh
even without considering the climb to its little top stack
but can anyone find a pic of a class a visit to either of these
points
or to any similarly difficult monument tips such as brgyve etc
i have a pic of someone climbing from the top of a truck onto an
even larger ksmook cairn monument
over coils of preventive barbed wire etc
& then just barely stretching a finger up to the apex
before learning the tripoint itself was not at this ceremonious
location but a few yards away in a road
however
an authentic extreme class a visit
involving a challenging multipoint monument climb
would be nice to see
