Pics from yesterday’s climb to the top. EVOLUTION VIII MR has substantially more pics. The climb is pretty sketchy… the stairs all have their treads cut out, so you have to walk up the runners. There are a few spots where you actually have to scale the joey-carts structure… At one point up top, we felt the floor/roof shift… Stand by me ![http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs523.snc3/29751_417350944364_764659364_5449029_4737080_n.jpg](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs523.snc3/29751_417350944364_764659364_5449029_4737080_n.jpg) Train bridge ![http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs543.snc3/29751_417350904364_764659364_5449023_4610172_n.jpg](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs543.snc3/29751_417350904364_764659364_5449023_4610172_n.jpg) In the basement ![http://hphotos-snc3.fbcdn.net/hs543.snc3/29751_417350909364_764659364_5449024_847420_n.jpg](http://hphotos-snc3.fbcdn.net/hs543.snc3/29751_417350909364_764659364_5449024_847420_n.jpg) View from the top ![http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs503.ash1/29751_417353094364_764659364_5449090_7017982_n.jpg](http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash1/hs503.ash1/29751_417353094364_764659364_5449090_7017982_n.jpg) Badass… girl’s standing on a piece of shitty angle steel, outside it’s 10 stories straight down… ![http://onyxsyndicate.com/newman/MISC/CC/iphone%20034.jpg](http://onyxsyndicate.com/newman/MISC/CC/iphone%20034.jpg) See?

you can do the top of this bridge too, and there is a ladder. It’s probably the same height. ---

lol that you’re hanging out with lisa now. Awesome pictures. I pretty much grew up down in that area(that section of waterfront from the steel plant to the coat guard base) and spend most of my time exploring down there. ---
