Very cool. I have only made it to the spreaders. Very scary up there in my older ages! Bravo for going to the top!

Nice!
I've been up a lot of radio towers in my career, but have yet to get up that skinny mast!

Had to update. Didn't want anyone thinking I never got up the mast . Using borrowed Mastmate. Love it! The nylon steps stretch, so I was able to bounce up & down in them, working oil & WD40 into very sticky main halyard sheeve. That with lots of Sailkote in the track on the way down, the main sail practicaly raises itself.
Since then, fixed topping lift and installed DIY lazyjacks.
