Thats hazard duty pay right there. You have more guts than I would. Old men dont belong on ladders

To where my partner is standing is about 30 feet.
The peak of that gable is probably 37 ft. give or take a few inches.

Yeah, I did that stuff when I was 23. Today, about 4' max. Good on ya buddy.
Remember, it's not how many guns you have. It's how many bullets you have.
Re: Gettin high on the job today
It’s not the fall that hurts, it’s the stop. It surely doesn’t have to be that high. I know from experience. My theme song is “Walk this way”. I haven’t walked right for 40 years, but I’m blessed to still be able to do so. As already stated,BE SAFE.
Re: Gettin high on the job today
Yes, when I was 23 I'd stand on the very top rung of a 14 foot orchard ladder with a half full cherry picking bucket, now at 70 that photo looks pretty scary. I could probably do it if I had to but I wouldn't be comfortable.
Re: Gettin high on the job today
I’m glad there’s still folks that can do it. All I can say is be careful. My deer stand has shrunk from 15’ down to about head high.

I mostly hunt from ground blinds these days.

Re: Gettin high on the job today
Looking from the ground up my stomach got queasy. Looking from the top down I thought I was going to puke on my keyboard.
I have alway had an issue with heights, even just looking at pics.
