    Its not that high up, looks higher from the top. Best its 20' up from the road.
    But, the rope is a huge help. And, after a few times, its old hat. I felt good scampering up and back yesterday. And the feeling of having that job done exceeds the risk.
    I would like to install an eye bolt or something more permanent. Even a ladder on brackets would be good. As I become older and tottery....

    2-Pack Ladder Roof Hooks. Lots of vendors selling similar items from $50 and up.
