theres 2 options, the stairwell thats on the field side of the building, or one of the joe carts thats on the water side

the stairwell has a total of like 5 stair treads, so pretty much at al times you have a LONG fall if you slip

the joe carts are missing the bottom 3 levels of stairs, so you have to climb up between the silo and the joe cart for a lil bit, then step onto one of the landings and continue up by using teh stairs

DO NOT USE THE STEPS. instead place your feet on the tread stringers below the railings and waddle your way to the top.

The joe carts are a better option because the tread stringers are in decent shape, the steps themselves are SOMEWHAT intact, and even if you fall on the stairs and the steps give way, you have a shorter fall to the next level down

I highly suggest sliding down the stringers in the stairwell on the way out, its a rush, just dont fall and /yourself

either cart should be about the same. just hop up onto the first floor of the cart and use the steel outer beams of the cart to climb up, use the side facing the silos so you can brace yourself against the silos if need be

just like a jungle gym

heres a vie of the top of the one cart, showing how the walls are built on the carts.

fucking choach…

hey hotrodkid…we looked at both jerry/joe cars and i infact made it to the 2nd level and was on my way to the 3rd when i noticed theres no stairs…  
it was getting a little dark outside but what i could see it looks like the steps were cut on all floors…i think like 3-4 flights had 1-2 steps left in them.

Walks you right through how to get there, although a quick look at google maps makes it pretty easy to figure out on your own.
